Due to his past with Borussia Dortmund, it is believed that Jurgen Klopp may never manage Bayern Munich, but Manuel Neuer doesn’t agree with the statement.
Klopp announced earlier this week that he will step down as Liverpool's manager at the end of the season after which he may be available to take on a new challenge.
As soon as the German announced his departure, speculations about his rumours started to spread with some linking him to Real Madrid, Barcelona and even Bayern Munich.
Klopp didn’t speak too highly of the Bavarian club during his time at Dortmund but Neuer believed that his past wouldn’t be a problem if he wants to coach Bayern.
“I think it depends on him,” the goalkeeper said at a fan event. “I don’t think FC Bayern has anything against that.
“He’s a renowned, very good, experienced, tactically astute coach who has gained big respect from all footballers and athletes and I believe that he’s definitely a potential candidate who could work for Bayern at some point.
“Whether he wants to do that is of course his business. Maybe he wants to take a break first.
“Maybe he no longer wants the day-to-day business – I can imagine him possibly being the national team coach one day. Of course, that mainly depends on him.”
Klopp is most likely to take a rest from coaching after managing Liverpool for nine long and demanding years, but should he go to Munich, which is very doubtful, he will get the chance to manage Harry Kane, a striker he has faced numerous times during his Liverpool career and rates very highly.
“Harry Kane, what a striker. He is just a fantastic player but I hope we don’t see why I like him,” Klopp said previously talking about Kane.
“I respect how he came up, going out on loan, his career is fantastic. I remember one picture where him and Jamie Vardy are sat together on the bench for Leicester. I wouldn’t want to be the coach at that moment.”
