Jurgen Klopp could make a return to management in the near future, following Germany's dismal World Cup campaignLiverpool legend Jurgen Klopp may be back in the dugout sooner rather than later following Germany's disappointing World Cup campaign. Klopp cited a lack of energy as the primary reason for his departure and, at the time, suggested he might never manage again.Despite the German's assertion, Miroslav Tanjga – who played with Klopp at Mainz – claims there are three jobs that could potentially tempt the 59-year-old back into the dugout."What Klopp told me when he left Liverpool was that he had two wishes: to be the coach of the national team and of Real Madrid," Tanjga said.



He added: "I also know that he never saw himself as the coach of any other team in England, except Liverpool."Indeed, Klopp himself confirmed the latter point on the Diary of a CEO podcast, saying: "I said I will never coach a different team in England, so that means, if [I did return], then it's Liverpool. An announcement was made over Nagelsmann's departure on Friday, with Klopp telling the German football association he wants the job."I've done a lot of thinking in the days since our elimination and have consulted with trusted individuals both personally and within the federation," Nagelsmann explained in a statement.
