Jurgen Klopp secures first job after Liverpool exit --[Reported by Umva mag]

Jurgen Klopp has landed his first job since leaving Liverpool as he will become the ‘Global Head of Soccer’ for Red Bull.

The 57-year-old has been taking a break after stepping down as Liverpool manager at the end of last season.

Klopp has been heavily linked with becoming the next manager of Germany’s national team after Julian Nagelsmann.

However, Sky Germany reports that Klopp has now reached an agreement with Red Bull over a behind-the-scenes role with the group, signing a long-term contract which starts on January 1, 2025.

Klopp will be responsible for the network of Red Bull’s football clubs, including RB Leipzig, Red Bull Salzburg and Major League Soccer side New York Red Bulls.

The former Liverpool manager will act as a consultant for the Red Bull clubs around issues such as playing philosophy and player and staff recruitment.

Oliver Mintzlaff, the current CEO of Corporate Projects and Investments at Red Bull, is said to have played a key role in bringing Klopp to the company.

Speaking earlier this month, Klopp played down suggestions that he will become Germany’s head coach before the World Cup in 2026.

‘Everyone hopes that Julian Nagelsmann will do this for much, much longer than 2026,’ Klopp said.

‘I would be reluctant to talk about football today because there is nothing to say.

‘Rudi Voller is a very nice guy. He was put in the situation where he had to talk about it.’

However, Sky Germany also reports that Klopp has a clause in his contract with Red Bull which would allow him to take up the role with Germany if it becomes available before the next World Cup.
