Jurgen Klopp releases statement after being linked with sensational return to management with European giants

Former Liverpool boss has been in demand for big management jobs with his Red Bull in doubt

Jurgen Klopp has made his position clear regarding a potential shock move back into management.

The former Liverpool manager took up a global strategy role overseeing Red Bull's multi-club ownership football operations at the start of 2025 but has been linked with a number of club roles.

It has even been suggested that he isn't entirely happy in his new job and could be tempted away.

He was linked with the Real Madrid role before Xabi Alonso was appointed as Carlo Ancelotti's successor at the Bernabeu and an unlikely resurfacing at Serie A club Roma has also been mooted in the media.

Fellow Premier League winner Claudio Ranieri is currently in charge at the capital club but will move upstairs in the summer.

After Ranieri indicated that the Giallorossi have already agreed terms with his replacement, Klopp set out his stance.

Speaking at an event held by Liverpool's LFC Foundation, Red Bull's Head of Global Soccer ruled himself out.

"I'm not going to Roma," said the Premier League and Champions League winner. "If you come across any rumours suggesting that I will take a coaching job in the next few years, it's bull****. You can say that first."

Ranieri remains tight-lipped when it comes to the identity of his replacement at the Stadio Olimpico.

The 73-year-old is hoping to hand over a Champions League club at the end of the season. With one game left to play in Serie A, Roma – and city rivals Lazio – could still catch Juventus in fourth place.

After incredible scenes on Friday after Napoli won their fourth Scudetto with a win over Cagliari, Serie A promises more drama to conclude its final weekend.

Roma are one point below Juventus and one above Lazio. They will play away at Torino while Juventus visit Vicenza and Lazio welcome Lecce.

Whatever happens between now and the end of Sunday's fixtures, it seems Klopp won't be in charge of Roma or anyone else in the Champions League next season.

The German stepped away from management at the end of the 2023-24 season after nine years at Anfield.

Despite persistent links to new clubs, he has given no public indication that a return is on the cards.
