Jurgen Klopp shares insights on his departure from Liverpool and his new role at Red Bull, emphasizing a focus on the broader football landscape.
Salzburg: So, Jurgen Klopp just opened up about why he left Liverpool. He’s now looking to focus on the bigger picture in football, which sounds pretty exciting.
He spoke for the first time since taking the job at Red Bull, where he’ll be overseeing soccer operations for their teams. It’s a big change after nearly a decade at Liverpool.
Klopp mentioned he felt drained after 25 years in coaching. He wanted to learn and grow, but the routine of game after game was wearing him down. He’s curious and wants to explore new ideas.
Now, instead of just prepping for weekly matches, he aims to improve football globally. That’s a pretty ambitious goal, right?
During his press conference, he made it clear he won’t be coaching any of the Red Bull teams, like RB Leipzig or New York Red Bulls. He’s committed to his new role and won’t step back into management.
When asked if he might coach a Red Bull team in the future, he firmly said “no.” He’s focused on creating a solid structure for the teams instead of jumping back into coaching.
