At first he started off with a small club in Germany after moving to Mainz. He stayed with Mainz for the most of his career and played in the second division of the Bundesliga. Klopp played as a striker at the beginning but later started to play as a defender when his age caught up and he started to lose his pace.
He took an early retirement as he wasn't getting any better at the game. After retiring from professional football he got the opportunity to be the manager of the club that he took with both the hands. He was appointed as a coach by the club in 2001. He as the coach at Mainz for about 7 years. His playing style was attacking at that what he has brought to his teams as well. At Mainz, he scored 52 goals in his career before taking the managerial job. At the club he made them reach the Bundesliga for the first time in the clubs history that he wasn't able to do in his playing career. This was a very big moment in his life and he couldn't hold back his tears. His club was in the Bundesliga for just one year after which they were relegated but Klopp didn't resign he started wth the club and fight for promotion however he couldn't do so and decided to resign at the end of 2007 season.
Later he has signed y Borussia Dortmund who came 13 in the previous season. This prompted the club chairman to sign a new energetic coach and Klopp was the perfect fit for it. In the first two seasons he finished 6tha and 5th respectively but in the third season, he won the league beating their rival Bayern Munich. He again won the league next year by a record margin amassing a tally of 81 points which was the most by any club in the history of german football.
