Jurgen Klopp has been out of the managerial game since leaving Liverpool in 2024, but the door has been opened for a return.Since departing Anfield, the German has taken up a role as Head of Global Soccer with Red Bull.There was previous talk about Klopp joining Real Madrid after former Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso left, though that was quickly shut down.Meanwhile, Paris FC’s president has now said he would like the Premier League-winning manager to join his team. So, we’re not going to put the coach in a difficult position this summer, but in the medium term, do you have a dream, a fantasy, of installing him, of convincing him to return to coaching, and specifically to Paris FC?”Paris FC’s president responded by saying: “Well, obviously, who doesn’t dream of having Jürgen and his genius for football and tactics?



So, obviously, one day or another, we’d all dream of seeing him.“It won’t be in the short term since he doesn’t want to return to coaching anytime soon. But I would really like to convince him to come and coach our team.”Paris FC finished the 2025/26 campaign 11th in Ligue 1, and having Klopp join them would certainly be interesting.However, despite the former Liverpool coach no doubt being high on many clubs’ lists of potential managers, he is not expected to make a return to management anytime soon.What Jurgen Klopp has said about returning to managementAs per Liverpool.com, Klopp has already explained he would not manage another team in England outside of the Reds.He stated: “I said I will never coach a team in England again, that means if it’s Liverpool, theoretically it’s possible.”Given Arne Slot has guided the club to 12 Premier League losses in 2025/26 so far, many supporters would no doubt love Klopp back in the dugout next term.In reality, that is nothing more than a dream, and the former coach has insisted he is keeping busy away from managing.Klopp said: “In this moment, there is nothing [regarding a new job as a manager].

I love what I do. I’m a busy man, which is good, because I’m not good when I have nothing to do, to be honest.”Join Our NewsletterReceive a digest of our best Liverpool content each week direct to your mailbox
