Jurgen Klopp among their three-man shortlist; Aberdeen also on manager hunt.
SOCCER: The announcement that Joachim Low is stepping down as Germany's head coach after this summer's Euros has led to Die Welt speculating as to his successor.
Inevitably, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is one of the three names they think are in serious contention for the role.
Klopp is joined in the paper's shortlist by former Red Bull Leipzig trainer Ralf Rangnick and Bayern Munich's Hans-Dieter Flick, who worked as Low's assistant between 2006 and 2014.
Klopp is rated a 6/1 chance with BetVictor to succeed Low, with Rangnick 16/1. Flick is not quoted.
Derek McInnes Don for at Aberdeen
The duo disagreed on key behind the scenes decisions and that was compounded by a run of just one win in nine games in which the Dons only scored one goal, according to the Scottish Sun.
They say Aberdeen "want to go in a different direction" with McInnes being shown the door.
Former Aberdeen midfielder Stephen Glass has emerged as an early favourite, with the Daily Record saying the Atlanta United 2 boss is who the fanbase want.
He could face competition from Derek Adams, however, with the Daily Record saying the Morecambe boss is keen to return to Pittodrie where he starred as a player.
