Real Madrid don't deserve a manager like Jurgen Klopp, according to former Liverpool striker Ryan Babel.

The German boss is bringing the curtain down on his incredible nine-year career on Merseyside at the end of the season, leaving fans wondering what could be next for him.

After announcing his decision to leave in January, Klopp mentioned plans to take a sabbatical, though a number of top European clubs will no doubt be hoping to tempt him back into management this summer.

Real Madrid has been touted as a possible destination, despite the fact Carlo Ancelotti recently extended his stay at the Bernabeu until 2026.

But some, including Babel, aren't sure if the move would be the right fit for Klopp.

"There are not many teams, in my opinion, who deserve Jurgen Klopp," Babel, 37, exclusively told Ladbrokes Fanzone.

"So, with that being said, while I would love to see him be successful with a team like Real Madrid, we know that Real Madrid are not a team who are going to give him two or three years to eventually show the football that he wants to play.

So, I don't think Real Madrid deserve him.

?"Even a team like Bayern, you know, they don't have a lot of patience for managers.
