Jurgen Klopp is reportedly a target for fallen La Liga giants Real Madrid after doing a fine job in the Premier League with Liverpool.
Jurgen Klopp has no interest in walking away from Liverpool in an attempt to wake up the fallen giants of Real Madrid, according to the Telegraph.
Madrid are enduring one of the most depressing weeks in their 117-year history, following successive Classico defeats at home to Barcelona with a humiliating 4-1 loss to plucky Ajax at the Santiago Bernebau; a result that brought an end to their three-year reign as Kings of Europe.
As a result, embattled head coach Santiago Solari looks almost certain to be sacked. AS claim that president Florentino Perez held talks with the Madrid chiefs after the Ajax debacle until 2:00am to discuss potential replacements for the Argentine, with Klopp one of five on their shortlist.
According to the Telegraph, however, the charismatic German has no interest in swapping Anfield for the Spanish capital with his contract running until 2022.
Klopp has been a revelation on Merseyside, turning Liverpool into one of Europe’s most feared clubs again after so many years of disappointment. They are battling Manchester City at the top of the table with a first league title in three decades within their sights.
AS believes that Max Allegri, Joachim Low and Mauricio Pochettino are also on Real’s radar with Jose Mourinho tipped to make a stunning return to the Los Blancos bench.
