A Spanish journalist has revealed who Real Madrid players see as their new head coach.

The Real Madrid dressing room prefers Jurgen Klopp to be the team's new head coach, rather than Jose Mourinho, Cadena SER journalist Gonzalo Alvarez said on El Bar de Sique.

According to the source, the Madrid club's players believe that Mourinho's management style could cause tension within the team. It is noted that the Portuguese coach is known for his more decisive and confrontational approach, while Klopp is more popular with the players.

Alvarez also stressed that club president Florentino Perez understands the appeal of Klopp's candidacy, but is also aware of the potential impact of Mourinho's return on the media.

Sky Sports previously reported that Madrid are considering bringing in current Benfica coach Mourinho, but there have been no official talks between the parties yet.
