Borussia Dortmund have named Jurgen Klopp as their new coach on a two-year contract.
Klopp resigned from second division side Mainz last weekend and has now been unveiled as the successor to sacked former coach Thomas Doll.
Doll was fired after Dortmund finished a lowly 13th in the recently completed Bundesliga season.
"I am very pleased to be here," said Klopp. "For me it is an honour.
"Now I want to help the club compete again."
