So Klopp finally came to social media to clarify the situation
“Some of you might have heard already, some of you didn’t. From January 1, 2025, I will be Head of Global Soccer of Red Bull and I am really looking forward to that. A few months ago I said that I don’t see myself on the sidelines anymore and that is still the case. But I still love football and I still love working. Red Bull gives me the perfect platform for that.
“I want to share my experience which I collected over the years and we all know there are much more successful managers out there but in my career, I fought for promotion, I fought against relegation, I’ve fought for titles, I’ve fought for trophies. Sometimes we failed, sometimes we succeeded and dealing with that is not easy. But it’s possible. And then learn again, because when you are in the job, you have to play every three days, you barely have time for that.
And now I have time and I have the opportunity. I want to see and feel and figure out what is useful in football. So developing football a little bit as well. Really looking forward to it but now I go back on holiday. See you in January.”
After an illustrious 9 years of journey at Anfield, Klopp departed with Liverpool by the end of the last season. He took Liverpool back to their glory by winning many trophies including UCL and Premier League.
His new venture is to help the coaches of the clubs owned by Redbull, primarily RB Leipzig, RB Salzburg, and the New York Red Bulls. He will also be behind the strategy of the teams and their scouting of new talents
