The German is battling to win an unprecedented quadruple with Liverpool this season, with victory over Villarreal in their first leg of their Champions League semi-final a giant step in the club’s quest for history.
Klopp’s current deal expires in 2024 – the result of a five-year extension signed in 2019 – and sources close to the club have confirmed that Klopp and his representatives have indicated that a new contract is something they would like to discuss.
Jurgen Klopp Contract Extension: Official confirmation to be announced
Klopp has been at Liverpool since 2015/16 and guided the club to their sixth Champions League trophy in 2019 before ending a 30-year wait for the league title the following year.
His team have already won the EFL Cup this season with an FA Cup final to come in May while their 2-0 win over Villarreal on Wednesday night leaves them in the driving seat for a third Champions League final appearance in five years.
But Klopp is quickly establishing himself as one of the greatest managers in Liverpool’s glittering history and a new deal would lay the foundations for him to create a real dynasty at Anfield.
Liverpool’s owners Fenway Sports Group have won over Klopp in recent years with their plans for the future – plans they hope he will be central to – and he’s happy to commit after putting last year’s furlough fiasco behind him.

Klopp has become increasingly powerful at the club in recent times and 90min has learned that FSG value his input into all areas of the club – so much so that they are prepared to make him the highest-paid manager in the Premier League should he sign a long-term contract.
Liverpool have confirmed that FSG’s president Mike Gordon was in attendance for the 2-0 win over Villarreal, and it’s believed he is ready to sanction an extension – though the Reds would not comment on whether a meeting will be held with Klopp’s representatives. His agent Marc Kosicke, a regular visitor to England and Anfield, is also thought to have been at the game.
It’s understood Liverpool hope to conclude a deal with Klopp at the end of the season, when they could conceivably have won the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup.
