Liverpool under Jürgen Klopp have reached historic heights that were thought to be forgotten at Anfield, especially in the Champions League and by winning the Premier League, but above all by placing the Reds among the top four teams, season after season, in Europe. However, the start of the campaign has not been easy for the reigning European runners-up and Klopp is suffering, which could put the German on the path to Real Madrid.

According to a report in Don Balon, Carlo Ancelotti is immovable at Madrid right now, but we know that the bench is as volatile as a leaf falling on the asphalt in the middle of autumn, and Klopp, let's not forget, has always been in Florentino Perez's sights? Based on this mere rumour, let's start with the situation and context that always moves at the Santiago Bernabéu, where it is worth, on this fact, going to the figures on the tenants of the white coliseum, which have been many and numerous.

Jürgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola have finally agreed on something

Since 2015, despite their achievements in the Champions League and LaLiga, as well as other competitions, Madrid have had seven different coaches. Carlo Ancelotti, in his first spell, was in charge between 2013 and 2015, Rafa Benítez barely lasted a few months in charge in 15/16. Then came Zinedine Zidane, also in his first spell, with three consecutive Champions League titles between 2016 and 2018.

Julen Lopetegui lasted even less time than Benítez and was replaced by Solari, who lasted only a short time in charge. After that, Zizou completed a second, much more unsuccessful period before arriving at the new Ancelotti period. In other words, you stay at Madrid if you win, otherwise the bench is a dangerous place.

When would it be time for Klopp to move to Real Madrid?

On the other hand, there is the situation of the German manager at the English club, who has a contract until 2026, but whose start to this season has been bumpy; indeed, there is talk of a certain amount of attrition on both sides. No one can doubt, at least until the end of the season, that Ancelotti and Klopp will end up in red and white, respectively, but it is not risky to present the possibility of a change of roles based on the reports coming out of England. If Klopp decides to make the move or Liverpool do, his natural exit would be, they think in Chamartín, Concha Espina. It is early days, but not unreasonable.
