Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has already told next employers how long he’ll stay in job

Liverpool fans are still shocked by Jurgen Klopp’s decision to leave this summer.

Jurgen Klopp’s next job is likely to be his last when he leaves Liverpool in the summer. On Friday, the German boss left the football world stunned when he announced this season would be his last at Anfield, despite his team currently top of the Premier League and still in with a chance of glory in three different cup competitions.

Klopp has thus far denied he has another role line-up elsewhere, instead citing the need for a break from football following eight-and-a-half-years on Merseyside. And he’s also vowed not to take another job in England, claiming he would not be able to face leading a side out against Liverpool.

But the 56-year-old has already given a strong indicator of how long he’ll be in management if he does get appointed elsewhere. Back in September 2016, which marked a year since he replaced Brendan Rodgers at Liverpool, the former Borussia Dortmund boss outlined his deadline for retirement.

Predicting he would end his career in Germany, he told RedaktionsNetwerk: “I certainly will (return) to live, but I don’t know if I will be back there as a coach yet. The day will come when I say, ‘thanks, it was a pleasure’.

Klopp has already cemented legendary status at Liverpool having led the club to the 2018/19 Champions League, followed by their first top-flight title in 30 years. His tenure has also seen the club capture the League Cup, FA Cup, European Super Cup and World Club Cup

At Sunday’s home FA Cup tie against Norwich, he was given a huge ovation by supporters. However, he’s insisted there is no chance of him reversing his decision before the end of the campaign, irrespective of the desire of supporters.
