German media outlets have released new information regarding Jürgen Klopp's contract with the Red Bull group.
Details: According to BILD, the renowned German coach has signed a five-year deal with Red Bull.
Additionally, the contract does not contain a clause for automatic termination, contrary to earlier reports. This applies even to the position of head coach of the German national team.
If, after the 2026 World Cup, the German Football Association expresses a desire for Klopp to replace Julian Nagelsmann at the helm of the national team, it will depend on Red Bull's willingness to reach a compromise.
Previously, it was reported that Klopp's agreement with Red Bull included a clause allowing the former Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund manager to automatically terminate his contract in order to become the head coach of the German national team.
Reminder: The former Liverpool coach will take on a new role overseeing football operations at Red Bull. Starting January 1, 2025, he will serve as the “Head of Global Football” for the Austrian group.
Klopp left Liverpool after the conclusion of last season, having worked at the club since 2015, and yesterday marked the anniversary of his arrival at Anfield.
