Dietmar Hamann believes Jurgen Klopp could be the ideal candidate to fire England to World Cup glory in 2026.
The former Liverpool boss left Anfield in May and his next move is still unknown, but that hasn’t prevented him from still being linked to the biggest jobs in world football.
Gareth Southgate is still England manager as it stands but following two consecutive European Championship final losses, could England go in a different direction?
Qualifying for the next World Cup is set to get underway next year and Hamann has spoken about what could come next.
“On paper, Jurgen Klopp is best placed to lead England to World Cup glory in 2026 because of what he did at Liverpool,” said Hamann when speaking to TopOffshoreSportsBooks.
“He managed to win the Premier League and two Champions League titles, with the squad he had he did wonderful things.
“I think with the squad England have got now and also the age of the players, I think there'll be a force for the next two or three tournaments. Obviously, the next World Cup is in two years' time.
“It's certainly something which could get England fans dreaming.”
