Opel brand ambassador Jürgen Klopp was recently presented as the new manager of Liverpool FC.

After seven seasons as coach with Mainz and Dortmund respectively, this is Klopp’s first post abroad.

New club, new players, new league, new language and driving on the left – there is a lot to get used to in the new environment. Yet one thing will remain the same; Klopp will still be Opel’s international brand ambassador. There will be no big problems with adaptability at Liverpool, since Opel’s sister brand Vauxhall is the Official UK Car Partner of the club. Vauxhall also sponsors the four British national teams of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Looking back, one could think that Opel already knew about Klopp’s plans for some time. In past Opel television commercials, Klopp’s cars were almost always black, matching his former club’s colours in Dortmund, but now the new Opel commercials show him upsetting the luxury class in a red all-new Astra.
