According to the latest news, Barcelona is looking to bring in a new manager with more experience by the start next season.
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is one of the leading candidates to replace Luis Enrique at Barcelona, as per various reports. The German manager hasn’t spoken about his future at Liverpool yet. But with the current scenario at Liverpool, a move for Klopp to Barcelona seems highly unlikely, though.
Liverpool appointed Klopp as their manager in 2015, replacing Brendan Rodgers. Since then it has been a dream run for the Mersey side club, with fans witnessing some brilliant football at Anfield. The 46-year-old also has won 2 Bundesliga titles with Borussia Dortmund but hasn’t won a single trophy with Liverpool.
Recently, there has been some reports suggesting that Klopp will look to leave Liverpool at the end of this season. In addition, there has also been some news about Barcelona looking for a replacement for Luis Enrique. It is no doubt that a move to Barcelona will be a perfect option for Klopp.
Liverpool is currently 2nd in the Premier League table with just 5 points behind table-toppers Chelsea. Klopp might also want to stay with Liverpool if he can win the Premier League title with them this season.

Conte became the Chelsea manager this season and has already made an impact in Premier League. After having a 13 match winning streak, the Italian manager has also made his name into record books.
Chelsea technical director Michael Emenalo told Sky Italia: “We had to be careful and went through the process of waiting. At the time he was the coach of the Italian national team, a nation that is passionate about football.”
“We were very respectful of the Italian national team and didn’t want to upset anyone.”
“Once we decided that we needed to make a change and did a complete analysis of the handful of options, Conte was always top in our minds.”
“We played against them and I remember thinking his Juventus team was something very special.”
“He has brought a lot of knowledge, so many things to teach the players tactically, but also a professional approach to the game. I think this has given the players confidence.”
“Everyone can see he is doing an absolutely sensational job, so I am not surprised that the fans and everybody loves him. We love him too.”
“Personally, I think there’s an opportunity for him to stay forever,” said Emenalo.
