Reports linking Jurgen Klopp with a return to football management are wide of the mark, according to his agent.
Italian outlet La Stampa reported on Tuesday that the former Liverpool boss was set for a sensational return to the dugout with Serie A giants AS Roma.
The reports claimed that Klopp has been in talks over taking over at the Stadio Olimpico for some time and that he has given the ‘okay’ to chairman Dan Friedkin.
But Klopp’s agent Mark Kosicke has quickly poured cold water on the suggestion.
Speaking to Qatar-based Winwin Sports, Kosicke said: “Reports on Klopp becoming new AS Roma manager are not true”.
The 57-year-old left Liverpool at the end of last season before taking up a role with Red Bull as the group’s Head of Global Soccer.
