In recent days, the name of Jürgen Klopp had gained momentum to become the new coach of Real Madrid. Various reports suggested that he was willing to return to coaching if he received two calls: from the white club itself or from Brazil. After hours of many rumors, the German's representative has spoken clearly, making it clear where his future lies.
Jürgen Klopp rejects Real Madrid
Marc Kosicke, Klopp's representative, left no room for doubt in statements to Sky Germany. "I understand that there have been ongoing inquiries from the best clubs in Europe or some federations for Klopp. However, he has no intention of taking on the head coach position next season: not even at Madrid or with the Brazil national team," he stated.
In this regard, he made it clear that he will not leave his current position as the global director of all Red Bull teams. "Jürgen is happy in his role as global director of Red Bull and has an active contract, so there's nothing more to say," Kosicke pointed out.
With multiple rumors in recent hours, Red Bull has shown their anger at the possible departure of Jürgen Klopp. This has forced the German to act, quickly moving his circle to deny everything. Although Real Madrid is interested, the reality is that they would have to pay a lot of money to break his current contract.
As the global director of all Red Bull teams, Klopp is earning between 10 and 12 million per year. A high salary for a job that is less demanding than sitting on the benches.
Florentino has chosen for Madrid
Despite much talk about Klopp and his possible arrival at Madrid, the reality is that Florentino has always been clear about his priority. It is the usual one, Xabi Alonso, who has been of interest in recent years due to his unbelievable performance at Leverkusen.
From Madrid to the core, a great future and with great skills on the benches, Florentino is clear that he is the ideal candidate. Thus, the plan is clear: Ancelotti will leave, and Xabi Alonso will arrive. Meanwhile, Jürgen Klopp will continue to lead all Red Bull teams, which is paying him a lot of money to do his job well.
