Jürgen Klopp named new Germany coach after World Cup disappointment

Jurgen Klopp returns to football as Germany manager

He’ll be assisted by Peter Krawietz, Pep Lijnders and former Germany international Sven Bender.

Klopp has taken up the job of national team boss, his first coaching role since leaving Liverpool two years ago

Klopp has been away from frontline management since leaving Liverpool at the end of the 2023-24 season, when he cited fatigue as his principal reason for stepping away after a hugely successful nine-season spell in charge that saw him win both the Premier League and Champions League.
