Klopp Weighs Real Madrid Coaching Return Amid Ancelotti Uncertainty

Carlo Ancelotti's position as Real Madrid manager is in jeopardy following a disappointing Champions League run, leading to speculation about his potential replacement. While Xabi Alonso was initially favored by club president Florentino Perez, recent instability has prompted consideration of Jurgen Klopp, who is reportedly open to coaching Real Madrid or the Brazil national team if offered full control of the sporting project. Despite recently accepting a role as Red Bull's Global Head of Football, sources suggest Klopp is dissatisfied and would be willing to return to management for the right opportunity. Within Real Madrid, there is growing support for Klopp due to his tactical expertise and leadership, which are seen as assets to counter Barcelona's resurgence under Hansi Flick. The club is expected to make final decisions regarding the managerial position after the Copa del Rey final. The outcome of Ancelotti's future could also influence whether Klopp pursues the Real Madrid or Brazil national team job.
