Jürgen Klopp is not available for the Bayern Munich coaching job in summer in succession of Thomas Tuchel, his agent has said.

Klopp said last month he would leave Liverpool in June after almost nine years and then take a break, and agent Marc Kosicke told Sky TV this position has not changed.

"Jürgen Klopp will not coach a club or a national team for a year after the current season. That's the way it is," Kosicke said.

Bundesliga champions Bayern announced on Wednesday that they will part ways with Tuchel, who originally had a contract until 2025, after the season.
