Jurgen Klopp has decided on his position on coaching FC Barcelona, succeeding Xavi Hernandez, who announced his departure from the Catalan team at the end of the current season after a series of poor results.
Jurgen Klopp had also previously announced his departure from Liverpool at the end of the season and before the end of his contract, explaining that he needed a period of rest after running out of energy.
Today, Bayern Munich announced that its coach, Thomas Tuchel, will leave at the end of the current season as well, after a series of bad results in the local league and the Champions League, which made Jurgen Klopp wanted by the German club as well as Barcelona.
Jurgen Klopp suggests that he will spend a year without coaching any team, as he noted when he announced his departure from Liverpool at the end of the season.
According to ‘Sky Germany’, Bayern had thought about its option to relaunch the sporting project but the German club would already have the information that Klopp is not in the mood to return to professional football so soon.
Barça has him as one of their priority objectives, although everything indicates that it will be impossible to convince him in the short term to take the reins of the future Blaugrana.
Klopp already announced that he wanted to rest for a while and that he was giving up continuing at Liverpool because he saw himself without strength after many years at the first level. He needs to recharge his batteries to face new challenges and it seems that he will not be available for either Bayern or Barça.
It is also true that Klopp would prioritize entering the Spanish league before the Bundesliga to have a new challenge in his career, although now would not be the time.
