This is a very interesting summer for managers in European football, as several clubs have been looking for new coaches recently.
Liverpool had a big quest to replace Jurgen Klopp, with Arne Slot now about to confirmed, while Napoli are also looking for a new boss.
It turns out that Area Napoli now comes up with a very surprising claim, as journalist Paolo Esposito says the Italian club want the German coach.
“Jurgen Klopp has also been approached by Aurelio De Laurentiis to sit on the Napoli bench for next season. I already reported this in the last episode of Area di Rigore. The German coach will leave Liverpool at the end of the season.”
There are endless reasons to find this approach strange, especially with Klopp making it clear he wants to have some time off after leaving Liverpool.
Now what makes it more surprising is that there’s no information about the coach having turned down that scenario, with the outlet suggesting the outcome is still to be seen.
It’ll be very interesting to see Klopp’s destination once he decides to get back to work, but accepting Napoli’s offer right now would basically be to leave Liverpool for the Serie A side, and that doesn’t sound like something realistic.
