Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is emerging as a target for Barcelona.

The Catalans are currently in a poor run of form under current boss Ronald Koeman and currently sit ninth in LaLiga, with recent reports in Spain suggesting that it is a matter if when, not if, the Dutchman is sacked from his post.

Sport says Barcelona see Klopp as the ideal person to hold the managerial reigns in Catalonia, but even the LaLiga giants know those chances are slim.

Klopp has a contract at Liverpool that runs until 2024, with the German coach revealing his desire to honour that deal - but not extend it - back in August 2020.

The 54-year-old manager then wants to take a year-long break from coaching before deciding what he wants to do next after 12 months - with retirement from the game an option on the table.
