Manchester United have denied reports of contacting Jurgen Klopp to manage the team.

Manchester United have officially denied all allegations that the club contacted Marc Kosicke, Jurgen Klopp's agent, to invite the German manager to Old Trafford. This move comes shortly after reports of the Red Devils' interest in signing the former Liverpool manager spread widely in international media.

The cause stems from statements made by Marc Kosicke.

The controversy began with an interview published on the transfer website Transfermarkt last Monday. In it, Marc Kosicke, Jurgen Klopp's longtime agent, made some controversial claims. According to Kosicke, both Manchester United and Chelsea had proactively approached his client after the manager left Liverpool in the summer of 2024.

Sharing his thoughts on the process, Kosicke said: "Even Chelsea and Manchester United inquired, despite Jurgen making it clear that he wouldn't be managing any other club in England. The offers just kept coming." This statement immediately raised questions about the Manchester United leadership's personnel strategy during this transition period.

A strong reaction from the Old Trafford team.

Following these reports, Manchester United issued a very firm response. Sources close to the club confirmed that they had never made any official or unofficial moves to bring Klopp in to replace coaching staff. Chelsea also issued a similar statement denying Koscike's claims.

From a professional perspective, the possibility of Klopp managing Man Utd is considered the most unlikely scenario in modern football. The long-standing rivalry between Liverpool and Manchester United is a huge barrier, making any move between the two clubs, especially in the head coach position, unthinkable to fans on both sides.

Besides the story about the two English giants, agent Kosicke also confirmed that Jurgen Klopp had received an offer to become England's head coach after EURO 2024. However, the strategist declined in order to focus on a long vacation after many years of intense work at Anfield.

Kosicke expressed pride in his client's career, emphasizing that Klopp has made history as one of the rare coaches to have managed only three professional clubs – Mainz 05, Dortmund, and Liverpool – without ever facing dismissal. Currently, Klopp is still enjoying life away from the touchline and has no intention of returning to direct coaching anytime soon.

Meanwhile, at Old Trafford, the story of the team's future continues to be a topic of discussion under the leadership of current personnel such as Michael Carrick, who is striving to reshape Manchester United's playing style during this challenging period.
