The BBC and ITV are battling to add number one target Jurgen Klopp to their punditry teams at the European Championship.

However, Mail Sport understands that both will be disappointed, with the outgoing Liverpool manager expected to turn offers down - and instead head to the tournament in his native Germany as a fan.

The UK’s two main broadcasters are known to be desperate to add Klopp to their line-ups for the summer showdown. They believe the charismatic Anfield boss would be a must-watch, marquee signing and would give their coverage the edge in the traditional battle for viewers.
