But the 23-year-old told German newspaper Sport Bild his future is uncertain in the wake of the news Carlo Ancelotti will replace Pep Guardiola at the end of the season, and his admiration for Klopp remains.
"I know Jurgen Klopp well," said Gotze, out injured since October. "I've worked under him. He is a very good coach, definitely.
"It's all open, how to proceed after the season.
I have a contract until 2017, but of course, it is important how the new coach feels about me."I have not really given my future much thought recently because of my injury,
but everything is open as things stand. It all depends on the plans of the club and the new coach."Bayern's sporting director Matthias Sammer recently dismissed talk of Gotze moving to Anfield as "idiocy".
