Jurgen Klopp has been linked with a number of clubs since announcing he will depart Liverpool at the end of the season
Barcelona sporting director Deco has dismissed the possibility of hiring Jurgen Klopp as Xavi's replacement this summer.
Klopp has become a hugely successful manager in England after Liverpool owners Fenway Sports Group recruited him to succeed Brendan Rodgers. He has won multiple top-level trophies at Anfield including the Champions League in 2019 and the Premier League the following year. After Xavi confirmed earlier this year that he would depart Barcelona at the end of the season, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is though to be one of the preferred candidates for the job along with Pep Guardiola and Klopp. But the current Premier League trio have been ruled out by Deco.
Reports claimed that contact had been made with Arteta over a possible summer move, while Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi had been touted as an alternative for Barca having also been linked with Liverpool. Ex-Bayern Munich and Germany coach Hansi Flick was also in the frame with president Joan Laporta said to be an admirer of the currently unemployed manager.
