Jurgen Klopp’s next job could have been revealed… or perhaps not.
The German will be calling time on his Liverpool career at the end of the season, departing the Reds after nine years in charge that saw him deliver a Champions League and Premier League.
He is expected to take at least a year out from the game after claiming the reason for his departure was because he is ‘running out of energy,’ but that hasn’t stopped him being linked to a number of jobs.
None are quite like what a banking advert is suggesting, however. Klopp can be seen donning five different looks, just in case he’s after a change in career.
German news outlet BILD boasts the advert, showing Klopp donning a number of different looks.

He will leave his role as Liverpool manager at the end of the season after nine years in charge
The first look is a baker, with the 56-year-old stood holding three French sticks with a beaming smile.
Second, he has grown out his hair, wearing a bandana and leather jacket as he shows off a rock star look, perhaps mid-song.
He can also been seen as a surgeon, ready to perform a different type of surgery to that he put on the Liverpool team he inherited from Brendan Rodgers.
Finally, with long hair again, he is seen with a loose-fit shirt and a surf board.
There is also a fifth image, with Klopp wearing a traditional cap and a jumper with the word ‘coach’ on – perhaps the career he is most likely to go with when his Anfield days are done.

The Reds are set to battle it out with Bayern Munich to appoint current Bayer Leverkusen boss Xabi Alonso
Liverpool, meanwhile, face a battle with Bayern Munich to appoint Xabi Alonso as their new manager next season.
The Reds seemed front runners to secure the signature of their former midfielder, but Bayern sacking manager Thomas Tuchel has thrown a spanner in the works around where Alonso could end up.
The Spaniard has remained tight-lipped over his future, insisting he is focused on his Bundesliga title charge with Bayer Leverkusen, but seems set to leave in the summer.
