Jurgen Klinsmann has ruled out a return to coaching in the Bundesliga.

The former Germany coach parted company with Bayern Munich towards the end of last season, after less than a year in the Allianz Arena hot-seat.

He had enjoyed more success with the national team, leading them to the semi-finals of the 2006 FIFA World Cup Germany™.

"For us it is relatively clear: we will not embark on a new Bundesliga adventure," Klinsmann told Bild newspaper. "After the World Cup, I will possibly be active somewhere else."

Klinsmann has been linked with a job in the Premier League, having enjoyed two spells in England with Tottenham Hotspur in the 1990s.

Commenting on reports linking him with Liverpool, Klinsmann only said: "There are always rumours."
