Just like Zidane, the luxury home Klopp will live in when he leaves Liverpool

Jürgen Klopp surprisingly announced that he would leave his position as manager of Liverpool FC at the end of the season. He then wants to take a one-year break from the soccer business. The bottom line is that he will spend more time at his finca in Mallorca. In fact, the German has a contract with the top English club until 2026. On a sporting level, things are going very well this season. Liverpool is at the top of the standings and in the Europa League the club easily reached the round of 16 as group winners.

"I can understand that at first this is a shock for a lot of people," Klopp is quoted as saying on the team's website. "It's like, how should I put it? I'm running out of energy. I know I can't do the job again, again, again, again, again." It's not an overnight decision. As early as November, he had doubts about whether he would fulfill his contract.

In the summer of 2022, Klopp bought a finca with his wife Ulla in Santa Ponça in the southwest of Mallorca. The real estate company Minkner & Bonitz had asked a purchase price of 3.9 million euros for the 5,000 square meter property. It is not known how much Klopp ultimately paid for it. His close friend and former teammate at Mainz 05, Christian Heidel, also lives nearby. The estate is owned by Swiss artist Rolf Knie, who comes from a circus dynasty.

Klopp just like Zidane

While Klopp will spend more time in Mallorca, a similar case is that of Zinedine Zidane who has been out of management for several months and is constantly seen at his luxurious home in Ibiza, also in Spain. The two-storey house of the former Real Madrid footballer and DT and his family is used by them to spend days off, usually during the summer vacations.
