Klopp's New Job

[brainiac]

'Jurgen Klopp has taken a new role as head of global soccer at Red Bull.

Energy drink 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.

It also took a minority stake in Championship side Leeds and became the club's front-of-shirt sponsor earlier this year.'

I think this is the definition of 'sinecure'  :)

Good work if you can get it.

Great, he was a good manager at Liverpool, I hope he enjoys this new challenge.

[brainiac]

Exactly - world-wide luxury travel, epic shmoozing, no real responsibilities.

🎶 and you can get it if you try🎵

Or maybe not.

Challenge?  What challenge?!

[Ken4155]

"What challenge?"

How about keeping a straight face every time he picks up his pay check.

Would you have turned it down, brainiac? I certainly wouldn't have.

[Ken4155]

Pay cheque, of course.

[brainiac]

Ken - I'd have signed the contract before you could say 'Gegenpress' !

Plus Liverpool signed a new manager who doesn't need a new set of teeth and a hairdo. Must have cost em a fortune over the years.

Sehr gut, brainiac😉

Nice teeth, nice hair, nice specs...just generally a nice bloke.
