Jurgen Klopp shocked the world when he announced he would be leaving Liverpool in the midst of the 2023/24 season. Now that the dust has settled, speculation has begun as to when the former Borussia Dortmund head coach will return to management - and pundit Marcel Reif thinks he will return to the dugout ‘in 2025’.
Speaking with BILD, Reif said: “He is not the type of person who will spend the next few years on the ‘finca’ in Mallorca thinking about the sense and nonsense of the world. I think there is still far too much of a coach in him. He will return in 2025.”
Galatasaray enter race to sign West Ham transfer target Joel Matip
West Ham United have been linked with a free transfer for former Liverpool defender Joel Matip for several weeks now. It may not be quite so simple to bring the ex-Cameroonian international on board, however, as the Hammers now face competition from Jose Mourinho’s Galatasaray.
This is according to a report from Turkish outlet Fotomac. As such, if Julen Lopetegui’s men want to be successful in their pursuit, they must act quickly. The Turkish giants’ pulling power has been on full display recently, when they completed a deal to bring Victor Osimhen to the club on a loan deal.
