LEIPZIG, Germany – Jurgen Klopp has once again dismissed any rumors suggesting he is a candidate for the head coach position at Real Madrid, asserting he is “at peace” since stepping away from coaching in 2024. He has embraced his role at Red Bull, emphasizing his commitment to this new chapter.

After Xabi Alonso’s departure from Real Madrid following a brief tenure, speculation linked Klopp to the vacant position. However, he reiterated his disinterest in a recent media session stating, “I don’t want to be somewhere else.”

“I don’t get up and excited if, whatever, Real Madrid is showing interest, if they would, but it’s the media,” he elaborated, expressing contentment with his current responsibilities.

Klopp’s focus has shifted from managing a single team to overseeing global soccer initiatives, illustrating his evolution in the sport.

He has made it clear that while he leaves the door open for a future return to coaching, he is satisfied with his contributions at Red Bull. “I always was happy where I am… I’m consistent. I don’t change my mind overnight with these kinds of things,” Klopp concluded.
