After Hansi Flick’s dismissal from the German national team, Jurgen Klopp was considered for the position, but his agent was keen to dispel the rumors
The German national team’s search for a coach continues after the dismissal of Hansi Flickbut it is certain that the name will not be Jurgen Klopp. The person who said this was the manager of the commander of the Liverpoolwhere he reiterated the coach’s long-term contract with the English club, and that there was no possibility of a change at the moment.
“He has a long-term contract with Liverpool. He is not available for the role of national team coach“, said Klopp’s representative to “Sportschau” magazine. It is worth remembering that the coach has a relationship with the Reds until the middle of 2026, when he will complete 10 years in the role.
Furthermore, the coach also spoke about the possibility of taking over the national team. Despite having shown interest in the challenge at some point in his career, he ruled out that it could happen before a natural departure from Liverpool, with the intention of fulfilling his contract in full.
“The job of national team coach would be a great honor. There’s no doubt about that. Basically, it’s an interesting job. But I still don’t know if I will do something completely different after leaving Liverpool. I want to keep my options open“, said the professional to “Sky Sports”.
Therefore, the German federation must seek Julian Naggelsman for the position, as the coach has been without a club since leaving Bayern Munich last season. After being eliminated in the first phase of the last World Cup, Hansi Flick ended up not being able to handle the pressure in the face of more negative results in recent friendlies.
