Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp was reportedly Real Madrid's first choice to replace Zinedine Zidane last summer.
After winning his third UEFA Champions League title in a row, Zidane walked away from the Madrid giants and was replaced by then-Julen Lopetegui at the Santiago Bernabeu.

In addition to the Liverpool coach, it's reported Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino and Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri were under consideration by the La Liga giants.
