Klopp's Agent: Real Madrid Rumors Are Annoying

Jürgen Klopp's agent, Marc Kosicke, has emphatically denied rumors linking his client to the Real Madrid managerial position should Enrique Riquelme win the club's presidential elections.

Last night, Florentino Pérez's opponent confirmed his readiness to immediately negotiate with the German specialist if he secures power at the Royal Club on June 7th. “We know that Klopp has publicly stated he has no intention of returning to the dugout in the short term and has turned down numerous offers. That's why we believe the challenge at Real Madrid is different. Because there are many great clubs, but there is only one Real Madrid. There is only one institution capable of uniting tradition and future, values and ambition, passion and excellence.

Therefore, if club members place their trust in me on Sunday, then on Monday, June 8th, Raúl González will contact Klopp to personally present our sporting project and our desire for him to lead Real Madrid's new era from the bench. This decision by the sporting and technical staff aligns with the sentiments of thousands of club members and 'Madridistas' with whom I've had the opportunity to speak over the past two weeks,” read part of Enrique's official statement on the matter.

However, Kosicke immediately dismissed the possibility of Klopp taking over Real, expressing his irritation at these reports. “This is annoying! Klopp is happy in his role at Red Bull and has no ambition to work as a club coach,” he declared to Sky Sport Germany. As is well known, since leaving Liverpool two years ago, the German has been working as a sports consultant for Red Bull.
