Jurgen Klopp has found himself a new job after reportedly signing a ‘long-term’ contract to become the ‘Global Head of Soccer’ at Red Bull.
Klopp left his post as manager of Liverpool back in May after a successful nine year spell in charge, having led the club to Champions League and Premier League triumphs.
The 57-year-old had been enjoying his time off, stating that he didn’t want to take up a coaching role and needed a rest after making his decision at the start of the year.
However, according to Sky Germany, the ex-Liverpool boss has now agreed a deal with Red Bull and will take up the role on January 1st.
This role will require Klopp to be responsible for the international network of all football clubs at Red Bull – including Leipzig, Salzburg and the New York Red Bulls.

Furthermore, Klopp has negotiated an exit clause that would allow him to take the German national team job – should he be approached.
It’s been widely reported in recent months that the European giants have earmarked Klopp as a potential successor to current boss Julian Nagelsmann – whose contract runs until the end of the 2026 World Cup.
Last month, the national team’s sporting director Rudi Voller said they will go after Klopp if he decided to return to management.
