Profiling Jurgen Klopp’s backroom staff, including Zeljko ‘The Brain’ Buvac

Posted by

Peter Krawietz – First-team coach 

Unlike Buvac, Krawietz never played professional football, and is just 43-years-old. He has been with Klopp for the majority of the manager’s career though, so has a wealth of experience as a coach. Krawietz was involved in everything at Dortmund.

He’s a video analysis expert, so prepared reports on the opposition – but also studied Dortmund’s own performances and worked directly with the players to improve them.

Krawietz also scouted potential signings and youngsters in the academy and advised Klopp on who could viably represent Dortmund, while Buvac does more tactical work on the training ground.
