"Jurgen Klopp might be about to return to management following a shock sack decision. After nine years at Liverpool, in which he delivered a first Premier League title in 30 years and a sixth Champions League trophy, along with several domestic cups, the German stepped aside at Anfield, citing exhaustion as the major factor. Klopp has since stepped into a controversial role at the Red Bull group overseeing player development, but may well be set for a return to the dugout in Saudi Arabia."
"Now, Al Riyadh in Saudi Arabia are reporting via Fichajes in Spain that the Tigers have set Klopp as their no.1 target. It's clear that signing a star of his stature is intended to restore prestige and sporting stability to the Arab club, the latter state though it feels like a long shot. FourFourTwo understands that Klopp remains committed to the Red Bull project and is enjoying life away from management at current but naturally, if the Saudi Pro League approaches him, it will come with a big offer."
Jurgen Klopp left Liverpool after nine trophy-laden seasons, citing exhaustion, and now works for the Red Bull group overseeing player development. Al Ittihad recently dismissed Laurent Blanc following a defeat to rivals Al Nassr. Al Riyadh, via Fichajes, report that Al Ittihad have identified Klopp as their top managerial target to restore prestige and sporting stability. Klopp reportedly remains committed to the Red Bull project and is enjoying time away from management, but a significant offer from the Saudi Pro League could prompt a return. Concerns exist about tactical fit given the squad's age relative to Klopp's gegenpressing style.
