It’s a teeth-grinding arrival. After almost a decade on the Liverpool bench, where he won numerous trophies, Jürgen Klopp was recently named “Global Director of Football» within the Red Bull group. He will soon supervise the firm’s international network of clubs, which includes teams in Germany, Austria, the United States, and even Brazil.

But the arrival of the German coach in the company is not unanimous. For several weeks now, many German football fans have criticized his choice. This is also the case for Mainz supporters, who took advantage of the arrival of RB Leipzig, owned by the Red Bull brand, to display banners for the attention of Jürgen Klopp, their former coach between 2001 and 2008. “Everything we let you become, have you forgotten?», for example displayed the club’s ultras on one of the posters. Or again: “I love people until they disappoint me“. The divorce therefore seems complete.
