Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp appointed global head of soccer at Red Bull.
"After almost 25 years on the sideline, I could not be more excited to get involved in a project like this," said Klopp.
Energy drinks brand Red Bull owns RB Leipzig in Germany's Bundesliga, Austrian side Red Bull Salzburg and Major League Soccer side New York Red Bulls, as well as Brazilian side Red Bull Bragantino. "Jurgen Klopp is one of the greatest and most influential figures in world soccer, with extraordinary skills and charisma," said Oliver Mintzlaff, the company's CEO of corporate projects and investments.
He began his managerial career at Mainz in 2001 before joining Borussia Dortmund in 2008, where he won two Bundesliga titles and reached the 2013 Champions League final.
