Klopp explained that fatigue was the trigger for his resignation, and now he has taken up a new job – but he is not a manager.
Instead, the 57-year-old will be Red Bull’s new global head of football.
Klopp has signed a long-term contract but will not start his new job before January 1, 2025.
However, he could shorten his contract thanks to a special clause that would allow him to leave if Germany calls.
Klopp has been linked with a job in the German national team in the past and has made no secret of his desire to become a coach one day.
In 2023, he said: “It is not completely out of the question that I will be a national coach at some point.
“But it has to fit. And so far it hasn’t. And if I terminate my contract at Liverpool, then surely nothing will be done for a year.”

At Red Bull, Klopp will be tasked with advising their teams, including RB Leipzig, RB Salzburg and New York Red Bulls.
He will be responsible for guiding the philosophy of the game and developing young players, as well as advising on transfers and managerial appointments.
