Mario Gomez has been working for Red Bull Soccer as Technical Director for two years. It is now clear what will happen next for the former goalscorer.
Former national soccer player Mario Gomez will apparently remain in a senior position in the Red Bull cosmos for the long term. The 39-year-old former striker extended his contract as technical director of Red Bull Soccer until 2028 and will also work closely with Jürgen Klopp there from next year. “Bild” and “Kicker” report this unanimously.
Gomez, who ended his career in 2020, has also been responsible for the main sponsor of Bundesliga club RB Leipzig since 2022 for the other RB branches in Salzburg, New York, Brazil and Japan. The long-time successful coach Klopp will be “Head of Global Soccer” at Red Bull in the new year and thus Gomez’s superior.
