Former Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp is on the verge of becoming the new head coach of Germany national football team after reportedly accepting the role.
The experienced German tactician is said to have agreed in principle to take charge of the national team, with only the final contractual details yet to be concluded before the appointment is officially confirmed.
According to reports, Klopp has already given his approval for the move and is eager to return to coaching after stepping away from club management earlier this year.
The 59-year-old had opened the door to the possibility of taking over the German national team in recent days, and negotiations have now advanced to the final stage.

Klopp is widely regarded as one of the world’s top managers, having enjoyed successful spells with Borussia Dortmund and Liverpool F.C., where he won multiple major honours, including the UEFA Champions League and the Premier League.
An official announcement is expected once the final paperwork has been completed.
