Jurgen Klopp not looking for a 'top club' when he returns to coaching

Former Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp has a good idea of the type of club he'd like to run when he returns to managing.

Rather than taking the usual route of a top manager and signing with an established club, the German international revealed he's aiming to join a team on the verge of something special.

"I'm really very relaxed - but only because I know that is how it goes sometime," Klopp told reporters at the Radio Exhibition in Berlin. "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."

Some of those "exciting" clubs that could use his help are located in the Premier League, as various teams such as Liverpool and Tottenham continually find themselves on the precipice of joining the league's elite, only to fall short by the time May rolls around.
