Report: Manchester City not considering Jurgen Klopp as new manager

Borussia Dortmund manager Jurgen Klopp will not take over at Manchester City, according to reports.

Manchester City have no interest in hiring Jurgen Klopp as their next manager, according to reports.

The Borussia Dortmund head coach will leave his current job at the end of the season, and has confirmed that he doesn't plan to take a break from football.

Current City boss Manuel Pellegrini is reportedly under pressure from the club's board after a poor run of form, and the Citizens have been linked with a summer move for Klopp.

However, The Guardian reports that the 47-year-old is not a candidate to replace the Chilean, as City's number one target remains Pep Guardiola.

Guardiola's contract at Bayern Munich doesn't run out until 2016, but the paper says that they may be prepared to wait an extra season to get their man.

Klopp has also been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal in the past.
