Jurgen Klopp openly flirts with next job as he makes feelings on USA clear

Jurgen Klopp now has American soccer fans dreaming that he could genuinely be tempted to become the next United States Men’s National Team (USMNT) head coach after his recent Instagram post.

The USMNT decision-makers are currently conducting a “comprehensive review” of their performance at Copa America – after they failed to make it out of the group stages following a shock defeat to Panama before being beaten by Darwin Nunez and Luis Suarez of Uruguay.

The German’s admission on a podcast in May led many to believe that he would prefer managing a national team moving forward, rather than in club football. He told the Willipedia podcast: “It’s out of the question that I’ll stop working altogether. But I don’t see myself continuing at the same pace as before at the moment.”

The aforementioned report suggested that the German and USA national teams were the only jobs that he’d likely take, the former likely to be unavailable for several years after Julian Nagelsmann’s deal was extended.
