The former all-action midfielder believes that Klopp is the one who can take them to the next level.
Of course, in a normal career, one day he would become manager of the German national team, everyone is looking for that," he told Jeff Stelling on Football's Greatest Podcast.
He did a great job, he built something really special with his club. He's now in that position he can make his own decision, he can build his own career," he added.
He could train every club in the world, every club would be happy to have him. But he's a guy who loves consistency and he has values.
He has this calmness to not make quick decisions, he can take 10 times longer to pick his move especially from such a good environment that he has built himself.
But we would love it one day because he has this quality, he has this character to symbolize all German attitudes. We need a leader like him. Whenever he's ready I think the people and the fans would love it."
