Discussion about Klopp's appointment
Hans-Joachim Watzke commented on the negotiations regarding Jürgen Klopp's appointment as the head coach of the German national team. He noted that an agreement has not yet been reached because some obstacles remain.
Main obstacles and chances
The most significant issue, according to Watzke, is Klopp's current contract with Red Bull. Nevertheless, he believes the probability of a deal being struck is above 50%, although he is more cautious than others.
Watzke emphasized that Klopp's willingness to resolve the remaining issues is a big advantage. At the same time, he also mentioned the organization's limited financial capabilities. He added that he hopes his personal affection for Germany will give them some 'patriotic discount.'
