The only question is whether the US will pony up the funds because if they do I think it could be really helpful even if it is short term Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fergasun Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 We are talking Klopp? For US Soccer? I mean it would be great for them, but why would he? An international hiring would be so unlike US soccer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if funds were unlimited who would want to work with an organization that did detailed talent evaluation and then appointed Berhalter? Um, $50M? No. Klopp made in the neighborhood of $15M this last year at LFC. His net worth is estimated to be in the $40-$50M range. International footy is far less strenuous on a daily basis, with far fewer matches. I would imagine it will take around $5M annual for a top manager to come stateside…but who is the big question. I don’t think Mourinho would, and his style would not mesh well with these players, IMO. I’d prefer Pochettino personally. Maybe De Zerbi? Ralf Rangnick? If they could pry him away from Austria.

His net worth is estimated to be in the $40-$50M range. When his name was mentioned for the German National Team they said they could not afford it as his money included guaranteed advertising revenues. “The DFB can’t pay Jurgen Klopp at all, he earns a fixed €24m ($26m/£21m) a year, plus €26m ($28m/£22m) guaranteed advertising income — so €50m ($54m/£43m),” the German FA's Ralph-Uwe Schaffert said in an interview last December (via Focus).

Long n Left Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 The German coach has announced that he’ll depart Liverpool at the end of the 2023-24 campaign, two years earlier than his current deal with the club is due to expire. It’s reported that Klopp takes home an annual salary of €18million, which places him only behind Diego Simeone and Pep Guardiola. Advertising revenue is an estimate there by the German FA director. I’m guessing it is grossly inflated by him, so he has an easy excuse to not go after Klopp right away, and keep Nagelsmann on at a reduced salary. Also, now that Klopp is no longer a manager of one of the most visible football teams in the world, that advertising income will reduce greatly.

ixcuincle Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/40578534/uswnt-head-paris-olympics-question-marks-attack United States women's national team boss Emma Hayes said she wanted better decision-making and execution in front of a goal against Costa Rica in the Americans' final match before departing for the 2024 Olympics. Instead, she got a scoreless draw in which the USWNT took 26 shots and held 80% of the possession against a Ticas squad that played in an ultra-low block -- a 4-2-3-1 "Christmas tree," Hayes noted after the match -- that clogged channels and demanded a precision from the Americans that never came. "Listen, if you play a game of percentages or law of averages, we're creating more and more high-quality chances and we're getting numbers into key areas, we're getting touches in the key areas," Hayes said after reading an Opta stat about her team's 67 touches in Costa Rica's box without scoring.

ixcuincle Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 He's okay. Would be the best USMNT manager in some time but that's not saying much It's good to see they have their sights on internationally as Klopp, Pellegrino and now Pochetinno have been linked to the position Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
