After the humiliation against Arsenal and the devastating Champions League defeat, Carlo Ancelotti's position at Real Madrid is in jeopardy. The manager may not stay with the club after this season, which is a very real prospect right now.
As soon as the likelihood of Ancelotti's departure emerged, reports of Los Blancos' interest in Jurgen Klopp surfaced. This is not the first time the German islinked to the Merengues, but it is perhaps the most appropriate moment.
Klopp is a fantastic manager who plays stunning new-generation football. He understands the techniques of the world's top leagues and has tried his luck at the highest level several times. Some argue that he would be an excellent pick to replace Ancelotti, and I agree to some extent.
Klopp's agent clears the manager's intentions amidst Real Madrid links
The news of Madrid's interest in the former Liverpool manager gained traction following the Champions League defeat. According to certain reports, the German is dissatisfied with his position at Red Bull and would consider changing jobs if extraordinary opportunities such as Real Madrid or the Brazilian national team arrived.
In the middle of everything, Klopp's senior agent, Marc Kosicke, addressed Sky Sports Germany about the manager's situation at Red Bull. Kosicke said, "Jürgen is very happy with his new role as Head of Global Soccer at Red Bull.”
According to the article, despite interest from prominent European teams, Jurgen Klopp is not looking for a new post after just recently joining Red Bull. According to journalist Florian Plettenberg, he is not searching for another managing position, even if it is offered by Real Madrid.
If Klopp's senior agent's comment is to be believed, there is no reason to contact the manager. If Carlo Ancelotti is truly fired, whose future remains uncertain and will be tested shortly, Real Madrid's only option should be to sign Xabi Alonso as soon as feasible.
