Marco Rose has welcomed the appointment of his former Mainz coach Jürgen Klopp as head of soccer at Red Bull. "I'm looking forward to it. I think I will be able to use his expertise, his experience, his charisma, his network and try to be successful together. It's a good story for everyone here," said the RB Leipzig coach ahead of this Saturday's match (3.30 pm/Sky) at 1. FSV Mainz 05.
Rose remembers his time in Mainz very well. "It was a very special time that we had together. A great community, a great group, we created something special in Mainz. We're very proud of that, which is why we're still very much in touch," said Rose, who always had a direct line to Klopp. "We've seen, heard, written to and, of course, supported each other. Now he will do that in his new role here at the club."
