Klopp urges Real Madrid to sign Benfica title-winner | OneFootball

Real Madrid has made Jürgen Klopp its top priority for the managerial position in the next European football season. Last Friday, it was reported that the German coach would be willing to take on the project, but he would have requested a name linked to Benfica as a condition.

According to Teamtalk, it is revealed that Klopp has already communicated that he will only proceed with negotiations if the club guarantees it will invest in signing the Argentine Enzo Fernández, who has been standing out in the Premier League wearing the Chelsea shirt.

Klopp believes that a player of Enzo Fernández’s quality can make a difference in his style of play, becoming the priority for Real Madrid’s project. However, to fulfill the German’s wish, Florentino Pérez will have to reach an agreement with the Blues for the Argentine midfielder.

It is worth remembering that, in February, it was reported by the newspaper Marca that the completion of this deal is hindered by the 25-year-old player’s market value. The portal Transfermarkt valued the deal between the two parties at around 140 million euros, after the Blues paid 121 million euros to the Eagles in January 2023.

In the current season, playing for Chelsea, Enzo Fernández – valued at 90 million euros – has already played a total of 42 official matches: 28 in the Premier League, eight in the Champions League, four in the English League Cup, and two in the FA Cup. In the 3,331 minutes he has spent on the pitch, the Argentine has recorded 11 goals and five assists.
