French journalist Francois Gallardo has claimed on social media that Jurgen Klopp will become the next head coach of "Real Madrid" starting next summer. According to the report, the decision was made as early as December, and the agreement has already been signed.
The same source said the club will go ahead with the change regardless of whether current coach Alvaro Arbeloa wins a trophy before the end of the season. That suggests "Real Madrid" have already made up their mind about the bench for the next campaign.
Reports linking the Madrid side with the German coach have appeared before, and Klopp has also been mentioned in connection with "Atletico Madrid" in recent media speculation. Still, Gallardo's latest claim goes further by saying the move is effectively settled.
Klopp has been out of coaching since leaving "Liverpool", where he spent nine years and built one of the strongest teams in Europe. During his time at the English club, he won major honors and became one of the most recognizable managers in world football. So far, there has been no official confirmation from "Real Madrid" or Klopp's camp.
