According to Calcio Mercato, Liverpool's Jurgen Klopp is on the top of Juventus' wishlist, but the Old Lady have yet to approach him.
Before deciding to give the highest priority to the renewal of Massimiliano Allegri and even before the elimination with Ajax, Jurgen Klopp was a name extensively observed and on top of Andrea Agnelli's wishlist. Even more than Pep Guardiola.
Klopp loves Italian football, says Calcio Mercato. Andrea Agnelli has been a fan of his since his Dortmund days and the temptation has become almost natural for a coach of his level.
But Juventus never went beyond an approach, there was no outlet for any negotiation or concrete talks. The reason is a pact with Liverpool that has taken force week after week, match after match.
In fact, the Reds had received ample guarantees on an imminent renewal of a five-year contract by breaching the wall of 10 million euros per season plus bonuses, only expected to see how the season will end, with the title race in the Premier League still not decided and the comeback against Barcelona securing the Champions League final for Liverpool.
Thus, a new contract is ready for Klopp with a record salary, that worth of a top player. So far, Jurgen has not given any other signal than to continue with the Reds, with the manager focused on the season finale and enthusiastic about the Liverpool project.
Juventus have already understood for months that there is no room for dialogue and is waiting to meet Allegri, with Klopp signing a renewal in the next couple of weeks to cement his position at Anfield.

It's his team. They're his boys and he's their own. The love, respect and ambitions are massive. Club and him made for each other. Lifetime deal ffs.

klopp next move after LFC is to retire and travel with wife and Grandkids. Klopp from his own mouth says after LFC he will have the money, the time and hopfully the health to travel the world something he always wanted to do. He has no interest whatsoever in Barca, RM or Juve.

Klopp is very happy with Liverpool, and the club is very happy with him. I think he will renew his contract beyond 2022. If he is to become champion or Champions League winner, he will 99.9 percent stay longer
