Klopp's cruel decision

Klopp is not satisfied with Leipzig's form under coach Rose.

On March 303, RB Leipzig fired head coach Marco Rose after a series of disappointing results. Notably, Jurgen Klopp was a significant influence on this decision despite the fact that the two were once close friends.

After announcing his departure from Liverpool at the end of the 2023/24 season, Klopp surprised the football world by accepting a senior management role at Red Bull from January 2025. He oversees the entire football division of the group, from RB Leipzig, Red Bull Salzburg to the New York Red Bulls.

In his new role, Klopp has a say in matters such as coaching strategy, football philosophy, player development, transfers and even head coach appointments. And the sacking of Rose is the first major milestone in which Klopp has directly intervened since taking office.

According to Bild , Klopp initially supported Rose wholeheartedly - which is not too difficult to understand as he himself brought Rose to Mainz when he was a coach, even signing a long-term contract when the team was promoted to the Bundesliga. However, that close relationship has recently cracked.

Klopp is said to be unhappy with Leipzig's professional development under Rose, especially as the team struggles in 6th place in the Bundesliga and is at risk of not qualifying for next season's Champions League, something that has not happened since 2019.

Before Rose was fired, Klopp personally went to the Leipzig training center to introduce himself to the players, a move seen as a "prelude" to the big change to come.

Immediately after parting ways with Rose, Red Bull appointed Zsolt Low as interim coach. This is a name that Klopp highly values. Low was a close assistant to Thomas Tuchel at PSG and Chelsea, and is expected to help Leipzig regain their form in the final stages of the season.

Klopp: 'Some Liverpool players need to improve their attitude' After losing 1-2 to Brighton in the fourth round of the 2022/23 FA Cup, the German strategist said Liverpool had improved but not enough to qualify for the next round.
