worries: As German media shortlist ”main contenders ‘for job after Hansi Flick sack.

Wataru Endo, a midfielder for Liverpool, led Japan to a humiliating 4-1 victory at home this past weekend in a friendly, ending Flick’s tenure as Die Mannschaft’s head coach.
Pressure has been rising on Flick following their disastrous World Cup campaign, where they were eliminated in the group stage, and Reds attacker Luis Diaz has added to the scrutiny with his goal contributions in June as Colombia claimed a 2-0 victory.

According to 90min, Klopp has been identified by the DFB (German Football Association) as one of the leading candidates for the open position of head coach. According to the newspaper, the association is “enamoured” with the Liverpool manager and is considering hiring the 56-year-old at the end of this season to give him the chance to take over in time for the 2024 Euros, which will be hosted by Germany.

 

According to the German publication BILD, Klopp has already stated that he won’t be available for the summer’s home European Championships and that Julian Nagelsmann, the former manager of Bayern Munich, is the favourite to take over.

Even though the youthful coach was let go from the Allianz Arena in March, he is still bound to the Bavarian club, which means the ‘cash-strapped’ DFB might have to compensate the Bundesliga champions for their former boss.

The source suggested Louis van Gaal, Matthias Sammer, Oliver Glasner, Rudi Voller, who will be in charge of the team’s Tuesday match against France.

The possibility of leading Germany was discussed by Klopp in a July interview with Sky Sports. But the Liverpool manager insisted that he “can’t” simply quit the Reds.

There is no doubt that having the position of national coach would be an honour. My issue is the issue that prevents the entire thing from happening.

“I can’t just up and leave Liverpool now and declare that I’ll rule Germany for a while. The request isn’t even there, therefore that doesn’t function. I need to be available if I’m going to do it at some time, which I’m not at the moment. I have an obligation to the club.

In general, it’s a fascinating job. After I leave Liverpool, I’m not sure if I’ll do something entirely different, though. I want to have a variety of possibilities.

Dietmar Hamann, a former midfielder for Liverpool, has urged the hiring of Sammer or Felix Magath to bring “authority, experience, and backbone.”
