Klopp's role on Magenta TV, the German TV outlet, over the World Cup has largely overshadowed parts of the tournament for Germany.Klopp had to apologise to Nagelsmann for comments he made that could have been interpreted as him lining up for the head coach role after his departure.Should he take on the role, it may be a surprising switch, but one that would offer the manager a route back into management on the international stage.Choose Liverpool.com as a 'Preferred Source' on Google News for quick access to the news you value.Jurgen KloppLiverpool FC
