Real Madrid supporters want Liverpool boss Klopp over Pochettino

Real Madrid supporters want Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp to succeed Zinedine Zidane as coach.

Zidane unexpectedly resigned as Madrid manager on Thursday just days after winning a third consecutive Champions League title for the club.

On Friday, AS ran a poll on their website for Madrid fans to have their say on who they want to replace club legend Zidane, with four names put forward.

And they duly delivered their verdict, with Klopp getting the nod ahead of Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino.

Over 120,000 votes were cast in the poll, with the Liverpool boss receiving 41 per cent of the votes, while Pochettino got 34 per cent.
