Real Madrid’s Toni Kroos has conveyed his wish to see Jurgen Klopp take the reins of the Germany national team in the future, particularly if Klopp opts to return to management. With Klopp’s impending departure from Liverpool this summer and a planned coaching hiatus, Kroos is optimistic about the prospect of Germany securing Klopp’s services.
While speculation has linked Klopp with a move to Real Madrid, Kroos remains hopeful that Germany can strike a deal with the accomplished manager. On his podcast, Einfach mal Luppen, Kroos expressed admiration for Klopp’s resilience and dedication, highlighting Klopp’s unwavering commitment despite signs of fatigue.
Recognizing Klopp’s popularity in both Germany and England, Kroos emphasized Klopp’s legendary status in both countries, citing loyalty, passion for the sport, and notable achievements, especially with Liverpool. Kroos lauded Klopp’s decision-making prowess and respected his choice to step away from coaching, expressing the hope that German football could eventually benefit from Klopp’s contributions in some capacity.
While Klopp has voiced his willingness to collaborate with the German national team, he clarified that he would only consider the move as a free agent, unwilling to terminate his contract with Liverpool prematurely. Julian Nagelsmann, the current coach of the German national team, is under contract until the conclusion of the European Championship tournament this summer, hosted in Germany.
