Klopp tipped to take Bayern job after 'three or four years' with Liverpool

Ottmar Hitzeld, himself a former head coach of the Bavarians, thinks the Reds boss will head back to Germany and also manage the national team

Former Bayern Munich head coach Ottmar Hitzfeld has tipped Jurgen Klopp to one day manage the Bundesliga champions and the Germany national team.

Klopp has guided Liverpool to the Champions League semi-final in what is his third year at Anfield, while they are set to finish in the top four of the Premier League once again.

Hitzfeld believes Klopp's achievements with the Reds should be heralded, and that he is proving that he is "creating an era in Europe" with the squad he has put together at Anfield.
