Jurgen Klopp firmly denies rumors linking him to AS Roma coaching role

Klopp

Jurgen Klopp has made it clear that he has no intention of returning to management anytime soon, shutting down speculation that he could take over as AS Roma’s new head coach. The former Liverpool manager, who stepped away from coaching at the end of the 2023–24 season, dismissed the reports as completely false.

Recent claims suggested that Klopp had reached an agreement to replace Claudio Ranieri at Roma, but the German coach was quick to refute them. His agent, Marc Kosicke, also stepped in to clarify the situation, stating that the reports were untrue. The rumors originated from an Italian publication, which later retracted its claims after misinterpreting a video from the club.

Since leaving Liverpool, Klopp has taken on a new role as the Global Head of Soccer for the Red Bull group, overseeing multiple clubs worldwide. He has repeatedly emphasized that he is enjoying his current position and has no plans to return to the sidelines. His departure from Liverpool was driven by a need for a break from the relentless demands of club management, and he has expressed satisfaction with his new responsibilities.

Despite persistent speculation linking him to various coaching roles, Klopp remains adamant that he will not be taking charge of any team in the near future. His strong denial of the Roma rumors reinforces his commitment to his current path, leaving no room for doubt about his future plans.
