Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admits the Germany job interests him.
However, Klopp insists he must remain to Liverpool.
"The job of national coach is and would be a great honour - there's no question about that," Klopp told Sky Deutschland.
"The problem that stands in the way of the whole thing is my loyalty. I can't just leave Liverpool now and say I'll take over Germany for a short time. That doesn't work and the request isn't even there.
"If I'm supposed to do that at some point, then I have to be available and I'm not currently," he added.
"I have a responsibility towards the club. Basically, it's an interesting job. But I don't know yet whether I'll do something completely different after I leave Liverpool. I want to keep my options open."
