Article
Jürgen Norbert Klopp ( German pronunciation: [ˈjʏʁɡn̩ ˈklɔp] ; born 16 June 1967) is a German football executive, former manager and player who is the Head of Global Soccer for Red Bull GmbH. He is widely regarded as one of the best managers of his generation.
Klopp spent most of his playing career at Mainz 05. He was initially deployed as a striker, but was later moved to defence. Upon retiring in 2001, Klopp became the club's manager, and secured Bundesliga promotion in 2004. After suffering relegation in the 2006–07 season and unable to achieve promotion, Klopp resigned in 2008 as the club's longest-serving manager. He then became manager of Borussia Dortmund, guiding them to the Bundesliga title in 2010–11, before winning Dortmund's first-ever domestic double during a record-breaking season. Klopp also guided Dortmund to a runner-up finish in the 2012–13 UEFA Champions League before leaving in 2015 as their longest-serving manager.
