The USA men’s national football team are reportedly eyeing an ambitious move to hire former Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund manager Jurgen Klopp.
That’s according to a recent report from the Independent, who claims American decision-makers have already ‘made initial approaches through intermediaries’ as they look to replace Gregg Berhalter following a disappointing Copa America campaign.
Klopp, 57, decided to leave Liverpool at the end of last season after nine successful years in charge. Although the German vowed to take a break from football and look to recharge his batteries, he is already being lined up for his next job.
Looking to capitalise on the 57-year-old’s availability, the USMNT are hoping to convince Klopp to join their project as the nation prepares to co-host the 2026 World Cup with Mexico and Canada.
Although Klopp has not yet confirmed what his next challenge will be, there is real optimism America can land the Stuttgart-born manager as the nation looks to improve their golden generation’s chances of success following their Last 16 exit against the Netherlands in the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
