He is the great favorite to replace Joachim Löw at the head of the German team, after the latter announced that he will leave office after the big event. It is also the great desired by the fans, but something seems not to fit. Something as simple as that Jürgen Klopp has a contract with Liverpool until 2024.
This has been recalled once again by the coach in charge of raising the English club to the top. Although this season things are not going so well and has had to see how Guardiola's Manchester City ate his toast in the Premier League. Klopp was flattered but somewhat overwhelmed also with the million dollar question, asked after the victory against Leipzig with which he sealed the classification for the quarterfinals.
“So much attention to me is fine, but I still have a contract. My situation is absolutely clear. They shouldn't ask me. I still have a contract,” he added.
And he defended his current contract with the Reds. “Why do I have to say that I am no longer interested in Liverpool? Man, it would not be a bad time to escape and train a little in Germany every two weeks, but I can not, “he concluded with a certain ironic tone.
Although he did not avoid giving the solution to the relief of Löw and He came up with a name, that of Ralf Rangnick, former RB Leipzig and Red Bull Salzburg manager, and now FC Viktoria Backnang manager. Rangnick, 62, is willing to work with DFB director Oliver Bierhoff: “I imagine a collaboration with Oliver Bierhoff would be very fruitful.”
