Jurgen Klopp’s next job revealed with the former Liverpool boss set to start in January

Former Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp will return to football in the new year as global head of soccer at Red Bull, according to a report in Germany this morning.

Klopp walked away from Anfield at the end of last season after leaving an indelible mark on the club, and English football as a whole, after eight and a half years in charge, during which time he led the club to the Premier League and Champions League titles.

He said at the time he would take a year-long sabbatical before considering his options but is set to return ahead of schedule with a remit of looking after Red Bull’s international network of clubs.

That includes RB Leipzig, RB Salzburg and New York Red Bulls among others.

Sky Sports Germany claim Klopp has signed a long-term contract with Red Bull with an exit clause that would allow him to take over as coach of the Germany national team should Julian Nagelsmann walk away.

The 57-year-old has been linked with other international jobs over the past few months. He was believed to be of interest to the FA as they search for a permanent successor to Gareth Southgate while the United States also considered an approach before giving the job to Mauricio Pochettino.
