Gary Lineker has ‘heard a little rumour’ about what Jurgen Klopp will do after leaving Liverpool.

It was an emotional day at Anfield on Sunday, as Jurgen Klopp waved goodbye, end𒐪ing a glittering eight-and-a-half-year spell at the club.

It was a fitting way to bid farewell, too, as Liverpool cruised to victory, defeating Wolves 2-0 with Alexis Mac Allister and J🐠arell Quansah the goalscorers.

Klopp will now have a break from football and he has admitted that ♚it could be a retirement🐼 from management.

Though, Lineker has heard what his next job may be.

Gary Lineker has heard Jurgen Klopp could become president of Borussia Dortmund

Speaki🧜ng on podcast, Lineker shared a rumoღur he’d heard about Klopp potentially becoming the president of Borussia Dortmund.

“I will be inter🌜ested to see what Jurgen Klopp does next. I think he will definitely take some time out because I think he’s genuine when he says he has run out of energy,” the 63-year-old said.

“You can see why that job is so demanding. There will be a battle for him in a year’s time. Or they’ll be lining up for a year or so’s time. I heard a little rumour that he might end up being president of Borussia Dortmund, which would𒆙 be amazing.”

Alan Shearer: “I heard the same, yeah.”

A return to Dortmund ꦓwouldn’t at all🧜 be surprising and it aligns with Klopp’s thinking that he mightn’t return to management.

The scrutiny an♓d demands of a club president are indeed a lot less than that of a manager, so that rumour may well come to fruition.

Jurgen Klopp won’t be in a rush

Klop🐼p has already admitted he won’t manage in Enꦑgland again out of respect for Liverpool, so any return to the dugout will be abroad.

Though, even then, it seems far more likely that he’ll take up a role as a🌳 president, as Lineker alluded to.

Anyhow, he won’t be ♎rushing into🌠 his next role, as he’s made it clear he wants to spend time with his family.
