Jürgen Klopp officially took up his role within the Red Bull network today as global director of football and he will have several tasks, some of which are quite unusual and unexpected.

At 57, Klopp, who won eight titles at Liverpool, will mainly work for the football clubs RB Leipzig, RB Salzburg and RB Bragantino in Brazil. Although his role will be linked to the football sector of the energy drink brand, Helmut Marko hopes that the former Dortmund coach would transcend the discipline and share his time with motorsport: “I don't know how he will combine everything, with the different continents and commitments, but having him in the organization is a fantastic decision».
