The legendary former Liverpool -Baas Jurgen Klopp left Anfield last summer and has not coached since then, but he is connected to the post in Roma after Claudio Ranieri announced that he was left his role
The agent of Jurgen Klopp claimed that he could take on his first management role since he would leave Liverpool by taking the leadership about Roma, insisting that the reports are “not true”. The German left Anfield at the end of the 2023-24 season after nine years at the club and won them the Premier League, Champions League and two domestic cups.
Klopp said that after almost a decade in a high -pressure role, he needed a break of the game and has since taken a job as head of Red Bull's worldwide football and even said that he might never manage another team again.
But that did not prevent the 57-year-old to be connected to a number of roles, the last of which is the Serie A-Kant Roma after it was announced, manager Claudio Ranieri will leave his job and go upstairs.
But the news that Klopp would replace him was quickly shot by his representative Marc Kosicke, who told Winwinallsports: “Klopp Coaching Roma? This news is not true.”
Ranieri has stabilized Roma despite a difficult season and the team is currently fifth – and still has a chance to finish fourth over Juventus for the last Serie A match.
Klopp is still waiting for his next job after he promised never to coach another English club in the Premier League, but said that he “had no more energy” to continue working at the highest level of the game.
He announced his exit at the beginning of 2024 and said: “I absolutely love everything at this club, I love everything at the city, I love everything to our supporters, I love the team, I love the staff. I love everything. I still take this decision that I am convinced that I have to take.
“I know that I cannot do the work again and again and again. After the years that we had together and after all the time we spent together and after all the things we experienced together, respect for you grew for you and the least that I owe you is the truth – and that is the truth. That is almost.
'If you ask me:' Do you ever want to work as a manager again? “I would say no now. But I don't know clearly how that will feel because I have never had the situation.
Klopp recently spoke about life after management and how he switched to a more business role at Red Bull, who has already seen him travel to Japan and Brazil as part of his work.
“I work, but not what I did before,” he said. “I don't just lie around, although I am sometimes. I don't miss anything. Other top coaches will not do this forever. The next generation is already there. At one point it will be up to them to start developing and changing football.
“There are already many people from when they get a taste of it. And there are more because they are so old now. I am really happy to view them. And if I can help them with advice and support, I am happy that I can do this. They probably think that after a while it works with me: if he can do it, we can't be that difficult either.”
