The possibility of Jurgen Klopp guiding the national team in the future is one that the German Football Association is not willing to abandon.
Following the 2024 European Championship, Christian Falk disclosed the DFB’s “secret plan” to entice the £300,000-per-week (according to data received by Planet Football) manager away from Liverpool.
Nagelsmann’s contract with Germany only lasts until 2024, which is interesting, the BILD writer exclusively revealed to CaughtOffside.
“He’s young—only 36—so he won’t get old as the Bundestrainer; after the Euros, he’ll want to move to a club. This proposal is adored by our association since it presents yet another opportunity to appoint Jurgen Klopp as the Bundestrainer. This is the elusive strategy. They are hoping he will act at that time.
We are aware of his contract with Liverpool, but we, together with the German association, believe that only Jurgen Klopp has the authority to determine when his work at Anfield is over.
They attempted to acquire him in 2022 and again in the present, but he consistently responded, “No chance, I have to move the Reds to the top.
It is unclear whether this will actually happen, especially if Die Nationalmannschaft has some measure of success in the upcoming international competition after a change in leadership.
In either case, we find it difficult to imagine Klopp terminating his agreement, which keeps him at the team through the summer of 2026.
The club’s loyalty and the head coach’s commitments have already been made plain.
The only issue now is whether or whether our intriguing new project can keep him interested over the previously mentioned deadline.
