There has been a relentless circus surrounding the top job at Real Madrid however ‘Los Blancos’ have still not found a suitable candidate. However, one name that continues to resurface is that of Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.



Club hierarchy at Real Madrid was not anticipating the shock departure of Zinedine Zidane, and his choice to leave has left the club floundering a little. After an initial sweep of the market, Madrid has realised that finding a replacement to the Frenchman won’t be an easy job.

At first, all eyes went to Tottenham’s Mauricio Pochettino, who had not too long ago renewed his contract, however, based on Spanish radio station ‘COPE’, Real ruled that option out due to the difficulty of possible negotiations with Spurs’ chairman Daniel Levy.

Regardless of having their first probes rejected by the Argentine, ‘Los Merengues’ were still holding out some hope for Pochettino, who has never hidden his desire to manage Real, although negotiations can be long, onerous and very sophisticated.

In the meantime, different names have emerged as potential replacements for Zidane included: Joachim Low, Massimiliano Allegri, Klopp, Julian Nagelsmann and even two former players at the Santiago Bernabeu, Michel and Fernando Hierro.

Once again, as ‘Marca’ points out, Klopp’s name comes to the forefront but the German is tied to Liverpool with a contract in force till June 30th, 2022. Madrid know with all these names, they will have to dig deep and get involved in difficult negotiations though.
