Former Everton and Man United goalkeeper Tim Howard believes that Jurgen Klopp should be the next head coach of the United States national team — and he claims he can make it happen.
Howard wrote for the Daily Mail: "I am willing to help my country in any way I can. Proud to serve. So if I was in charge of US Soccer right now, I’d be on my way to the airport.
"Why? Because I believe I could make a very compelling argument to Jurgen Klopp to take over the US Men’s National Team.
"After the disappointment of Copa America, after the United States lost to Uruguay and exited at the group stages, I will personally fly to Spain. I mean it.
"I know Klopp has only been retired a few weeks and I know he wants a break. But if we sat around his villa in Spain, I think I could lure him over here. 100 percent.
"The money is certainly there. So my pitch would be simple: he has a young group of players who can play progressive, front-foot soccer – exactly like his Liverpool teams. And in two years’ time he can go to the biggest World Cup in history."
Klopp has previously hinted that his next job will not be as intense as at Liverpool, so managing a national team could be an option. As Germany have extended Julian Nagelsmann for two more years, he might consider other options.
However, it's not too likely that he ends his break to take over the United States team this year — especially since he could easily do that in 2025, one year before the World Cup on their soil.
