Jürgen Klopp should attend the match of the eighteenth day of French Ligue 2 which will pit Paris FC against Amiens on January 11. The former Liverpool coach will be present on this occasion because of the acquisition by Red Bull of 10% of the shares of the second Parisian club. In October, he was named director of football for the Red Bull group, and he will be able to give his first impressions of a project run by the Arnault family, one of the richest in the world.

Actually, Paris FC has named Mario Gomez, the iconic striker of the German national team, as one of the main people responsible for the Red Bull project in Paris. The Arnault family, who own the majority of the club's shares, have confirmed that the second Parisian club will not be a case of multi-ownership, meaning that Red Bull will bring a sporting vision with a focus on scouting young talent, while the Arnaults will invest and define the commercial strategy.
Klopp's precise role in Paris is not yet established, although he will advise the whole company.

For now, Klopp hinted on his social media that 2025 could be a big year: “Maybe it will be the best year of our lives.” A warning to PSG, which already considers Paris FC as a threat in the landscape of Parisian and French football.
