Jurgen Klopp FINALLY 'lands new job as he signs long-term contract' five months after leaving Liverpool

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. 

According to Sky, Oliver Mintzlaff - the current CEO of Corporate Projects and Investments at Red Bull - is responsible for Klopp's arrival. 

The 49-year-old had been pushing for Klopp to be brought in for months and has now got his wish.

Prior to his new role at Red Bull, Klopp was previously identified as a potential candidate to replace Gregg Berhalter as manager of the USA national team. 

In September, Klopp stepped back into the dugout as part of a testimonial to honour two of his former players, Lukasz Piszczek and Jakub Blaszczykowski.

Klopp took charge of Blaszczykowski's side for the testimonial, and put some of his former players through their paces in a training session.
