In January 2025, he officially began a new role as Global Sports Director at Red Bull, where he will be working with clubs such as RB Leipzig, RB Salzburg, RB Bragantino, New York Red Bulls, Leeds United, and Paris FC.

On Thursday, Klopp attended the 10-year anniversary of Hout Bay United Football Community (HBUFC), where he responded to whether he will consider becoming a coach again in the future.

"The last thing I am thinking about actually is to be a manager again," the German manager revealed.

"I coached 1,081 games. I lost absolutely each final available. Some of them I won as well.

"And, no, I'm in a happy place.

"If I wasn't the manager of Liverpool FC, I wouldn't be here today. So thank God."

Nevertheless his contract at Red Bull will expire in December 2029, by which time he will be 61 years old.
