Iconic Liverpool coach, Jürgen Klopp recently joined the Red Bull galaxy as director of football. For what salary?
It’s at 1er January 2025 that Jürgen Klopp will officially take up his new role as global director of football at Red Bull. The iconic German technician will then oversee the sporting projects of the numerous clubs in the red bull galaxy. From Leipzig to New York via Salzburg and Bragantino, Brazil.
For fans of the character, the shock is brutal. There are many voices – in Germany in particular – rising to criticize a destabilizing choice, from the bench of popular clubs such as Dortmund and Liverpool to the sprawling Austrian multinational.
A salary divided by two
However, Jürgen Klopp at Red Bull will not earn as much money as with the Reds, whom he led to a triumph in the Champions League (2019) and a coronation in the Premier League awaited for 30 years (2020). While he received nearly 22 million euros per year on the banks of the Mersey – in the wake of Pep Guardiola perched at 23 million per year at Manchester City – his emoluments will be much lower from now on, although substantial.
Each season to lead the Red Bull football section, Jürgen Klopp will pocket between 10 and 12 million euros, Sky Germany reported this Saturday. Roughly the equivalent of Mikel Arteta’s salary at Arsenal. Remember that he could very quickly also have to manage Paris FC, whose takeover by Red Bull and the Arnault family has been announced.
