Klopp recently praised Alonso, describing his start to the managerial career as “incredible.”
The 56-year-old has explicitly stated that he won’t be involved in selecting his successor but has given a glowing endorsement of the World Cup winner.
“Xabi is doing an incredible job,” Klopp said.
“This is completely independent of that [links with the Liverpool job].”
“If you would have asked me eight weeks ago about Xabi Alonso, I would have gone, ‘Oh my God’.
“The ‘dinosaurs’, if you want, [Carlo] Ancelotti, [José] Mourinho, [Pep] Guardiola, maybe me, we will not do it [carry on in management].
“OK maybe Mourinho, but all the rest will not do it for the next 20 years.”
