Overview
- Reports say the German Football Federation and Red Bull have reached an agreement in principle that allows Jürgen Klopp to leave his role at Red Bull and take the national team job.
- Klopp told MagentaTV on Sunday that he has reached a "very, very generous" arrangement with Red Bull and that talks with the DFB are "moving in the right direction."
- The parties expect written formalities and supervisory‑board approval to follow, with German outlets reporting a signing and public presentation in Frankfurt could occur as soon as Friday if those approvals are completed.
- The DFB has reserved comment and says a final decision will be taken by the relevant bodies, while internal DFB talks are also ongoing about senior federation roles tied to a wider institutional reset.
- The hire is framed as a long‑term rebuild through the 2030 World Cup with Klopp likely to bring trusted assistants and to lead changes across senior and youth structures that aim to reverse recent World Cup failures.
