High-class clubs took notice of him through his performance and Klos received two offers from the 3rd division , including one from Arminia Bielefeld. His coach at the time in Wolfsburg, Lorenz-Günther Köstner , who once played for Arminia, advised Klos to move to Bielefeld because of the great tradition and the enthusiastic environment. Therefore, Klos moved to Arminia Bielefeld together with Maximilian Ahlschwede in the summer of 2011 . Years later, Klos admitted that he never thought of becoming a professional footballer.

It was only after Markus von Ahlen changed coach to Stefan Krämer that Klos became a regular player. With ten goals in 33 games he was the most successful goalscorer of his team in the 2011/12 season and played a major role in staying up. At the end of the season he was voted Player of the Year in the 3rd division. In his second season, Klos contributed with his goals to the promotion of Arminia to the 2nd Bundesliga .
