Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says that he is currently not interested in becoming the new head coach of Bayern Munich.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has insisted that he is currently not interested in becoming the new head coach of Bayern Munich.

Klopp's side fell just short of Manchester City in the 2018-19 Premier League despite enjoying an incredible season.

The Reds landed their sixth European Cup on Saturday night, however, with goals from Mohamed Salah and Divock Origi handing them a 2-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur in Madrid.

Bayern legend Franz Beckenbauer has said that he wants Klopp to become the new manager at the Allianz Arena, but the 51-year-old has insisted that he is only thinking about Liverpool.

"I like Franz - and he likes me. But I have a long-term contract at Liverpool. I would rather he said that than him saying and thinking that I cannot [be Bayern manager]," Klopp told Bild.

"However, both Bayern and Borussia Dortmund have very good coaches. And what could be in five years or more, I do not know. Maybe there will be completely different coaches that qualify."

Klopp won the Bundesliga title twice during his time in charge of Borussia Dortmund.
