Former Arsenal midfielder, Emmanuel Petit wants Jurgen Klopp to coach the England’s national team.
Klopp has left Liverpool after guiding the team to a third place finish in the Premier League last season.
The German, who stepped down from the position at Anfield after nine years at the helm, has already revealed his plans to stay one year away from the training ground, with no immediate interest in returning to coaching.
However, Petit believes Klopp would be bored after three months, telling Best Online Poker Sites (via the club’s website)
“Guys like this say: ‘I’m going to take one year out,’ but it’s a lie. After two or three months they will be bored.
“You have the choice to take either an English manager or a foreign manager. If we talk about an English manager then there is Graham Potter for example. I know it is not the tradition of English people or the FA to hire a foreign manager but they have done it in the past with Sven-Goran Eriksson.
“So maybe someone with a different vision from the outside, because I really feel that England is not far from winning something. I would love to see Jurgen Klopp.”
