Not LFC related, but apparently City are considering legal action after Riquelme claimed he would bring Haaland to Real as part of his bid for presidency.
He's also claimed that he will bring in Klopp should he win.
Do you think Jurgen would leave his role with Red Bull to join Real, and do you think Haaland could be tempted now that Guardiola's gone?
*Personally, I wouldn't believe a word Riquelme has to say, but I find the idea interesting.

I think Klopp will end up with Germany job next.
I can definitely see Haaland moving to Real or Barca (if they could afford).
Didn't he have a release clause in one of his contracts that could only be triggered by Barca/Madrid or was it just click bait?

Klopp is not joining Real Madrid.

Those Spanish team president vote things have always had the candidates promise to bring this player in or that manager in, it's the way they do things... My question is, has a candidate ever promised to sign a player or manager, and the signing never happened?

Yea City love a legal action.

Honestly, I'd rather it not be City but at least someone is finally kicking up a fuss about this type of behaviour. For far too long, the Spanish giants have been openly tapping up players, so that they can get them for cheap or even free.

It's not a rumour, BeKind, no need to cite sources, Riquelme spoke about it on live TV, and it's been reported by everyone from Romano to Sky Sports.

Thanks for clearing that up so we all know. ?

Funny how you threw a hissy fit about me 'being smart'.
