Germany manager: BVB boss backs Klopp | OneFootball

Everything points to Jürgen Klopp, the former BVB coach, soon taking the reins at the DFB. The coach will succeed Julian Nagelsmann, who is no longer national team manager after the botched World Cup.

Klopp, who is currently still employed by Red Bull, had already signaled early on that he was interested in the job with the association. There have repeatedly been corresponding rumors in recent years, but they never really became concrete.

Until now. Internally, Klopp is said to have a great deal of backing at the DFB, and many fans also want him as national team manager. He is expected to try to start a fundamental revolution at the DFB. One that is absolutely necessary.

Ricken clearly in favor of Klopp solution

Given the coach’s BVB past, it is no surprise that key figures at the Black and Yellows also believe Klopp is exactly the right coach for the German national team.

Around BVB training on Tuesday, Lars Ricken commented on the DFB coaching decision. “That would, of course, be the all-round, problem-solver, quality package,” said Ricken when asked about Klopp. His explanation: “He brings experience, authority, and a sense of fresh momentum. That would obviously do us a world of good.”

Ricken also assured Klopp of the best possible support to be successful. “Jürgen Klopp would no doubt be responsible for that, but so would we as a club, making sure we send the players to the national team in the best possible condition. We have a European Championship coming up soon, and we’re also seeing the European teams now at the World Cup. It’s not going to get any easier,” Ricken continued.

The next international matches are scheduled for September. Klopp will then have the chance to generate even more momentum and make an early statement as coach.
