Klopp confirms his plans for life after Liverpool & promises he won't manage new club straight away

Jurgen Klopp says he will take a year-long sabbatical when his time at Liverpool comes to an end.

Klopp, who has been in charge of the Anfield side for five years, previously suggested he would take a break from the game in 2022 before he agreed to a contract extension last December that will keep him at the club until 2024.

The 53-year-old says he is open to remaining at Liverpool beyond his current deal but insists that, no matter what happens, he will not rush to take on another job once he leaves Merseyside.
