Jurgen Klopp makes comeback as head of Red Bull's football operations after Liverpool stint

As per the company's announcement, Klopp will not be involved in the clubs' daily operations; instead, he will assume a more overarching strategic role.

Klopp himself said: "I see my role primarily as a mentor for the coaches and management of the Red Bull clubs."

"After nearly 25 years on the sidelines, I couldn't be more excited to be involved in a project like this."

The proposed move will materialise from 1 Jan 2025 and he will work closely with Red Bull franchises in Austria, Germany and the United States. The former Reds manager waved goodbye to Liverpool having won the League Cup in his final season but was largely popular with the Liverpool fans for helping them win the Premier League in 2020.

The title win was their first in 30 years while he also won the Champions League in 2019 after a dramatic season. Apart from winning the Premier League, he twice led Liverpool to second place finishes in the Premier League, both times ending the season one point behind champions Manchester City.

According to Sky Germany, the contract with Red Bull includes an exit clause which could see him take a future role with another side. His role includes advice to teams on playing style, transfer strategy coaching and development. However, his role won’t include any day-to-day operations with the football clubs associated with Red Bull.
