Leeds United set for Jurgen Klopp clarity after bombshell Red Bull claim
Jurgen Klopp will address the media for the first time on Tuesday as he begins his role as Head of Global Soccer for Leeds United minority shareholder Red Bull.
The ex-Liverpool boss accepted the position after departing Anfield at the end of last season, with one of his primary duties to offer guidance and networking opportunities to clubs in the Red Bull stable.

TNT Sports commentator Ian Darke exclusively revealed to MOT Leeds News last year his belief that Klopp will positively influence the transfer dealings at Leeds in a bombshell claim.
While the fear remains that Klopp’s impending influence at Elland Road will impede Daniel Farke’s plans, all will be revealed when the charismatic German breaks his silence for the first time at Red Bull on 14 January.
Jurgen Klopp’s Red Bull plans could impact Leeds United
Red Bull acquired their stake in Leeds in May 2024, and it is safe to say that the energy drinks company will be all too pleased with the progress made this season.
The Whites are leading the Championship table in January and have been the most consistent side in the second tier this term.
Furthermore, United recouped approximately £130million in player sales last summer, acquiring big fees for the likes of Archie Gray, Crysencio Summerville and Georginio Rutter, and look no worse off for it.
Leeds should be excited by Klopp offering his expertise at Elland Road if that is indeed the case.
The Premier League and Champions League winner built one of the most dominant sides in Europe during his spell at Liverpool.

Yes, Klopp will not have single-handedly influenced the incomings on Merseyside, but he will have undoubtedly collected a wealth of knowledge he can bestow onto his German counterpart.
Whether Klopp will have any sway at Elland Road remains to be seen, but all Whites supporters should treat this appointment as a positive sign and keep an eye on what Klopp reveals in his first press conference, which should provide some clarity.
In other Leeds news, a second loan exit is on the cards at the Whites with a medical due soon.
