But in an interview with Bild, Oliver Mintzlaff, chief exec of Red Bull Leipzig, gave a firm response to Real Madrid: there is no release clause for the former Liverpool coach.

He stated, “He has allowed the team to take a step forward and has found an exceptional balance between his support on the pitch and the need to give the club some leeway.

"Jürgen Klopp has made the most of his opportunity by joining us on a free transfer. He feels right at home with us and has already learned a tremendous amount. His contract contains no release clause, and his commitment to us is undeniable."

Along with Leipzig, Klopp is also working closely with Paris FC after Red Bull's investment last year and their promotion to Ligue 1.
