Now, a new report from Austrian newspaper Salzburger Nachrichten suggests his time within the Red Bull empire could end far earlier than planned. Klopp took up the strategic role on 1 January 2025, tasked with overseeing Red Bull’s global network of clubs – including RB Leipzig, New York Red Bulls and Red Bull Bragantino – and helping to shape their long-term sporting philosophy.

Another factor is the sheer media circus that has followed Klopp into his new role. Red Bull insiders are said to be uneasy that their Head of Global Soccer now generates more headlines over potential moves to Madrid or a return to frontline coaching than for any tangible impact on the pitch.
