Jurgen Klopp issues update on Liverpool exit plan and speaks on possible next job

Jurgen Klopp admitted he's not even thinking about extending his Liverpool contract at this moment in time because he's already tied down for another three years.

But the German, who has been at Liverpool since 2015, hinted he could remain at Anfield beyond 2024.

Klopp has spoken openly and honestly about his future ever since taking the reins on Merseyside, admitting he would like to go on a sabbatical once his days managing Liverpool are up.

The 54-year-old intends to head back to Germany and take a break from football for at least a year and it seems his plans haven't changed.

When asked if he is going to extend his contract at Liverpool to beyond 2024, Klopp told Bild: "There's no point in saying anything about that because it's still so long away.

"How am I supposed to know what's going to happen in three years' time? Most people don't even know where they'll be in two, three weeks."

Klopp was recently linked with the Germany national team manager job after Joachim Low announced he would be standing down.

But Klopp quickly ruled himself out of the running and the role was handed to Hansi Flick.

On whether he would like the job after managing the Reds, Klopp added: "If it's the end for me at Liverpool in 2024, then I'll have a year off first.

"Hansi Flick's contract would have to run until 2025 for me to even be considered. Nobody should call me in 2024."
