Jurgen Klopp, the current manager of Liverpool FC, was rumored to be a potential candidate for the position of Germany’s national team coach after Hansi Flick’s departure. Despite still being under contract with Liverpool until 2026, Klopp made it clear that he has no intention of leaving the club. The 56-year-old German coach signed a new deal with Liverpool last year and expressed his loyalty to the team.

In an interview with RTL, Klopp stated, “We’re building Liverpool 2.0 here, we want to win again, not just see how much longer we can continue. I have loyalty to Liverpool.. My heart is here in Liverpool. You can’t just cut out the eight years. I signed a contract here and, as far as I can remember, I wasn’t drugged or tied up and had to sign with my mouth. That was a free decision. And that’s why it doesn’t fit.”

Klopp’s remarks emphasize his commitment to Liverpool and his desire to continue the project he has been building with the club. His focus is on leading Liverpool to further success rather than considering other coaching opportunities, including the national team position in Germany.

“The problem that stands in the way of the whole thing is my loyalty,” Klopp told Sky Deutschland. “I can’t just leave Liverpool and declare that I’ll take over Germany for a few months.” That does not function, as the request does not exist.

“If I’m supposed to do that at some point, I have to be available, which I’m not right now.” I have an obligation to the club.

“In general, it’s an interesting job.” But I’m not sure if I’ll do anything radically different after I leave Liverpool. “I’d like to keep all of my options open.”
