Jurgen Klopp began his reign as Germany’s head coach by threatening to quit if the media invades his family’s privacy.
The former Liverpool supervisor was appointed on a four-year deal on Friday to exchange Julian Nagelsmann, who resigned this month after Germany’s shock World Cup defeat by Paraguay within the final 32.
But the 59-year-old issued a warning to the media as he held his first press convention as Germany’s head coach.
“If you behave badly and don’t leave my family in peace then I’ll be gone, I’ll just turn away,” Klopp mentioned.
“I know there are other countries where national team coaches are treated even worse.
“I really like this job however I’m all the time prepared to name it quits if want be.”
Klopp’s appointment was widely expected for weeks and his contract will see him through to the 2030 World Cup, co-hosted by Spain, Portugal and Morocco.
“Jurgen Klopp is just not going to have any ‘profession’ after the nationwide group,” he added.
“This is the head, the completely excessive level of my footballing profession as coach. I’ll give every thing I’ve obtained.”
