A couple of things have been said about that. Klopp mentioned that it would give his staff a chance to get themselves and their familes sorted, schools, etc. Think it was Hogan who said it would be impossible to keep quiet the process of bringing in a replacement. Or something to that effect.
Klopp and LFC will have been working away behind the scenes on this since he made his mind up in Nov. For whatever reason, they think that now is the right time to release the news.
