Klopp: Dortmund "perfect" for me

Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp has admitted that he is at the "perfect" club and has never considered moving elsewhere since taking over.

Klopp recently signed a new contract that would keep him at the club until the summer of 2018 and he intends to continue the outfit's improvement over the coming years.

"First and foremost I am pleased with the trust that has been placed in me," he told Bundesliga.de. "It is quite extraordinary that my contract will be extended another four and a half years. I want to keep Borussia Dortmund on the successful path and to make the club even better.

"The contract renewal was also a sign that in the next five years no-one has to call [to offer me a job]. I am honestly not the kind of person who constantly wonders whether the grass is greener somewhere else.

"Borussia Dortmund has become my club. It is not a cliche when I say it is important that you are at the right place at the right time. And for me, Dortmund is just the perfect place."

Dortmund finished as Bundesliga and Champions League runners-up last season.
