Klopp could make a sensational return – there are three coaching jobs that are more or less relevant for this summer.
German manager Jürgen Klopp left Liverpool last summer, but according to rumours, he has already been approached for three different jobs – less than a year after he left.

After nine successful years at Liverpool, where he won all sorts of trophies, the German coach felt that he had exhausted his energy and chose to retire. He is taking time off from coaching but has taken on a well-paid job as “Head of Global Soccer” in the Red Bull organization.
The 57-year-old travels the world and feels very good during the day, but as many hope for, it will eventually tingle to actually be present where it happens. He obviously has the opportunity to step into one of the clubs that Reb Bull wins as manager, but it is something he is said to have strongly rejected. – It has to be something unique and really big. – Something like, for example, the world’s best club, or the world’s best national team.
But while Klopp should be in no hurry to return to the sidelines, interesting opportunities are now opening up for him.
We can easily imagine a Champions League final between Liverpool led by Arne Slot and Real Madrid led by Jürgen Klopp or how about a World Cup Final between Brazil and Norway in 2026.

According to TBR Football, there are three potential positions that could lure Klopp back into management:
- Real Madrid
- Carlo Ancelotti is heavily linked to Brazil’s national team after Dorival Junior was fired.
- If Ancelotti leaves Madrid, Xabi Alonso is expected to be the first candidate to take over.
- But Klopp’s name has also surfaced in the discussions – both for Real Madrid and Brazil.
- Brazil national team
- Although Ancelotti is the favorite, Klopp is also mentioned as a possible candidate.
- This would have been a very surprising career choice for the German.
- United States National Team (USMNT)
- Klopp was long linked to this job after he left Liverpool.
- But Mauricio Pochettino eventually got the role.
- If Pochettino struggles and decides to return to Tottenham, Klopp could still be a possibility.
“I will never coach another English club”
Klopp has already turned down one job opportunity: He has promised that he will never take over another club in England.
- “I will never, ever coach another club in England. I promise – even if I don’t have anything to eat! “ he told Liverpool’s official channels.
- In January, he emphasized it again: “No other English club, never. Thanks to LFC, I don’t have that problem!”
Klopp has not revealed any concrete plans, but now it has been a year soon. Real Madrid, Brazil and the United States on his radar, he could soon find himself a new challenge.
Will it be La Liga, national team football – or still a break?
