Jurgen Klopp 'to reject top clubs for project'

Former Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp will reportedly reject offers from top clubs in order to take charge of a club with a good project.

The 48-year-old has been linked with a number of clubs since leaving the Bundesliga side at the end of last season but according to SportBild, Klopp would rather take over a club that needs help rather than manage a top club.

The German told reporters at the International Radio Exhibition in Berlin: "I'm really very relaxed – but only because I know that is how it goes sometime. I'll be back to train a team.

"It must be somewhere in the world that is not an absolute top club, there are other good projects that are exciting who need help."

Klopp helped lead Dortmund to two Bundesliga titles and a Champions League final during his seven-year stay with the club.
