Vladimir Smicer believes Jurgen Klopp could still return to management at a major European club. However, the former Liverpool player acknowledges he would never coach another team in England other than the Reds.
Klopp, 58, recently returned to Anfield as an LFC Foundation ambassador, describing it as a "very special experience". Alongside that role, Klopp is Red Bull's head of global soccer, a position he assumed at the start of last year.
The long-time Liverpool manager has not returned to coaching since leaving Anfield at the end of the 2023/24 season. Smicer, however, does not rule out a future comeback.

He told BetVictor after playing in the foundation's charity match: "Jurgen Klopp at another major European club, it's possible, it's possible because, for me, he's still a very young coach.
"And a very, very good one, I think one of the best ever coaches in football. So it wouldn't surprise me if any clubs want him to sign, that's for sure.
"It's just fantastic that his commitment to Liverpool is unbelievable, and, as he said, in England, he will never manage a different club than Liverpool. Abroad, we'll see, but so far, I think he's happy, he's enjoying his time.

The club's legendary former manager explained: "My role was definitely not to have a lot of words; I was here for the foundation and to be part of a really special experience.
"For me, a very special experience after a while – being around, being that close, seeing all the Liverpool lads and then seeing the Dortmund lads as well.

"That was like 80 per cent of my players. You don't meet very often, and to have them all together in one room, it's really cool.
"It was really, really, really nice, and the people suck it in. It's just so nice to see all the boys playing – but I think Thiago alone was worth the ticket!"
