Ange Postecoglou does not believe that Jurgen Klopp leave walk away from top-level management despite the Liverpool boss insisting he may never coach again. Klopp faces Postecoglou’s Tottenham in his penultimate game at Anfield on Sunday.
Klopp will stand down as Liverpool manager at the end of the season. The German has just three matches remaining of his near-nine-year tenure.
He has even suggested that he might not take control of a team again, and has pledged to spend at least a year away from football. But Postecoglou is sure that will not last long and that his counterpart will be back in an elite job in the future.
The Spurs boss said: “I sure see him back and managing at the top level again. Credit to him at such a big club he was able to imprint his own style, vision and bring success.”
It comes after Klopp insisted that Liverpool could be his final job coaching a team. The Independent claims that Borussia Dortmund harbour hopes of hiring their former manager into a head of football role in 2025.
“If you ask me, ‘Will you ever work as a manager again?’ I would say now no. But I don’t know obviously how that will feel because I never had the situation,” Klopp said in March.
“But all the rest, will I ever work again? Of course, I know myself, I cannot just sit around. I will find something else maybe to do.
“But I will not manage a club or a country at least for a year, that’s not possible, I cannot do that and I don’t want to. That’s all.”
