Will he stay at Red Bull? The reported details of Klopp's deal | OneFootball

The official confirmation of Jürgen Klopp as the new national team coach is still pending. According to information from 'Bild', the DFB leadership around president Bernd Neuendorf and his deputy Hans-Joachim Watzke will meet with him in the USA this weekend to hold final talks. 

The paper also reveals some details of the upcoming deal. According to the report, Klopp is to be offered a four-year contract through 2030, including the World Cup. 

When it comes to salary, the DFB is apparently even willing to dig deeper into its pockets than it did for Nagelsmann, who is said to earn just under seven million euros per year. 'Bild' also provides information about the possible coaching staff. Klopp’s long-time assistants Peter Krawietz and Pepijn Lijnders are reportedly almost certain to become part of his staff. Other potential assistant coaches have also allegedly met with Klopp in recent days.

Finally, the tabloid also reports a spicy detail regarding the compensation demanded by Klopp’s current employer, Red Bull. According to the report, it would not take the form of a cash payment. Instead, the beverage giant wants to keep Klopp as a brand ambassador, as that would offer greater value to them than a multimillion-euro transfer fee.
