Jurgen Klopp has been linked with a spectacular return to football management at Real Madrid.

The former Liverpool boss is said to be 'unhappy' in his current settings having not taken charge of another club since leaving Anfield last year.

A report originating from Brazilian outlet UOL claims that Klopp has grown unsatisfied only four months into his first job since departing Liverpool as Red Bull's global head of soccer.



The report also claims Real are the only club that he would agree to sit down with and discuss terms.

Critically this coincides with new looming questions over Carlo Ancelotti's future at the Santiago Bernabeu now that the club have been eliminated from the Champions League by Arsenal at the quarter final stage.

Were Klopp to replace the Italian in Madrid, it would at least fall into line with what he declared upon his Anfield exit in 2024.

"I will not manage a club or a country at least for a year, that’s not possible, I cannot do that and I don’t want to," the 57-year-old said last year.

He additionally promised: "What I know definitely – I will never, ever manage a different club in England than Liverpool, 100 percent.

That’s not possible."

"My love for this club, my respect for the people is too big.

Of course, I know myself, I cannot just sit around."

Klopp has proven exactly so when taking on a different challenge with Red Bull, but where the latest report states that he would seek to make Madrid his next permanent residence with a return to management - still keeping his promise to Liverpool to not manage an English rival - his latest comments on the situation would suggest otherwise.

Speaking at an event with Hout Bay United FC in South Africa last month, via Kickoff, the Liverpool icon actually squashed any thoughts that he is ready to jump back onto the touchline after the year's hiatus he initially set himself.

"The last thing I am thinking about actually is to be a manager again," he revealed.

If I wasn't the manager of Liverpool FC, I wouldn't be here today.
