Jurgen Klinsmann has announced he is ready to return to full-time
management.
Klinsmann has been out of football for over a year since resigning
as Germany coach following the World Cup and the confirmation of
his availability is bound to provoke renewed links with both
Chelsea and Tottenham.
Klinsmann remains a cult hero for the White Hart Lane faithful
after his two stints in North London during the 1990s while it was
reported last summer that he rejected an approach by Chelsea to
take over from Jose Mourinho.
The German was understood to be unwilling to uproot his family from
their home in America, but, according to The Daily Telegraph, he is
now willing to leave his base in California for permanent
work.
"I'm ready for the next challenge," he said.
"I'm eager to get back in. If the right opportunity comes along, a
chance to work together with the right people in the right
situation and for the right cause, then I'll be back."
