Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has issued a blunt reminder that he is not returning to the hotseat as he continues his Head of Global Soccer role at Red Bull.

The German has been in situ at the energy drink's football operations since January after ending his time at Anfield after nearly 10 years.

The Reds icon has been frequently linked with a return back to the dugout after ending his trophy-laden spell with Liverpool.



One of the main roles he is mooted with is the German men's national team post but the 58-year-old has been forced to repeatedly dismiss the rumours.

His current role in his native country means he oversees the multi-club model that Red Bull have implemented which spans from Europe to South America and Asia.

There has been managerial change at Die Roten Bullen in recent months with Marco Rose losing his job in March.

As a result, Zsolt Low was appointed on a caretaker basis with former Liverpool assistant manager Peter Krawietz joining the club.

But this summer, they opted to appoint Ole Werner as their new manager and Klopp was there to oversee Leipzig's return for Bundesliga preparations at the start of the club's pre-season training.

The former Reds boss was forced to shut down assertions that he was eyeing a return to football management.

"I don’t know if I need to explain this a thousand more times – I’m not the shadow boss here," he said.

"I’m just trying to contribute my experience – and I really do have quite a lot of that."

Klopp was on Merseyside to witness Liverpool win their second Premier League crown in five years after a successful debut campaign for the German's successor, Arne Slot.

He was in the city centre for the historic parade that followed a day after Virgil van Dijk lifted the title, with the former Reds captain's Steven Gerrard and Jordan Henderson in attendance.

As the Reds prepare for their title defence, they have been active in the transfer market signing Jeremie Frimpong, Milos Kerkez and making a record-breaking move for Florian Wirtz.

The switch for the Bayer Leverkusen star sees another German enter the fray at Anfield, on his arrival, Klopp said last month: "Florian is an exceptionally good player who suffered a serious injury at a young age but then picked up where he left off.

Respect.

"And if you don't pay attention to the weather in Liverpool, you'll find a wonderful club where you'd love to be a part of it all.

"Yes [Wirtz will put his stamp on Liverpool], although of course I don't know exactly which position Arne has Florian in mind.

"There's no question about it, it's an insane sum, and one that a player at Liverpool isn't aware of if things don't go well for two or three games.

"We all agree that we're talking about a great player here."
