Real Madrid is actively pursuing Bayer Leverkusen's Xabi Alonso to succeed Carlo Ancelotti as manager. While there is interest in Jurgen Klopp, especially given his significant reputation, discussions about hiring him have not progressed. Reports suggest that Klopp is content in his current role at Red Bull, which has led to complications in pursuing him. Alonso remains the club's primary focus despite admiration from some Real Madrid personnel for Klopp, making the managerial search a nuanced balancing act between ambitions and contracts.
I keep receiving many questions on Jurgen Klopp. I was checking on this story for weeks because we had this rumour for a long time.
What I got on this story on Jurgen Klopp is there is some people at Real Madrid having a high opinion of Klopp, really appreciating Klopp.
But at the moment I'm not aware of anything advanced, also because the agent of Klopp has already gone public and clarified how happy he is at Red Bull.
The speculation grew to a point that his agent had to reaffirm his happiness in his current post as Red Bull's head of global soccer.
