Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is reportedly open to negotiating with Real Madrid after the Spanish side's Champions League quarter-final exit at the hands of Arsenal.

UOL reports that Klopp is ready to discuss a potential comeback to the touchline with Real Madrid.

The mastermind behind Liverpool's success in recent years, the German recently took the role of sporting director for the Red Bull football group.

Ancelotti, aged 65, has enjoyed two stints at the helm of Real Madrid, from 2013-15 and again from 2021 to the present but may move on this summer.

The reigning European champions were humiliated in the Champions League this week, succumbing to a 5-1 aggregate defeat to Arsenal, losing both home and away legs.

Things haven't gone as expected but it happens in sport because there are no unbeatable teams."

Upon leaving Liverpool, Klopp cited his need for rest and his dwindling energy reserves as a key factor in his decision to walk away from the Anfield outfit.

After the years we had together and after all the time we spent together and after all the things we went through together, the respect grew for you, the love grew for you and the least I owe you is the truth – and that is the truth." It remains to be seen whether Klopp feels that he is ready to return to the touchline already, may that be with Madrid or elsewhere, or decides to commit his immediate future to the Red Bull project.
