Club president Florentino Perez is now leading the search for a new head coach to rebuild the team.
According to reports, the Real Madrid dressing room would prefer Klopp over Mourinho.
The former Liverpool boss is viewed as a more positive and stable figure, while Mourinho is seen by some players as a potentially divisive presence.
Mourinho concerns linger among players
Mourinho’s previous spell at Madrid remains a key factor in the players’ thinking.
During his earlier tenure, he had well-documented conflicts, including a high-profile fallout with Iker Casillas, reports Madrid Universal.
More recently, his criticism of Vinicius Junior and involvement in controversial incidents have raised further doubts about his suitability for the current squad dynamic.
In contrast, Klopp’s man-management style and track record of building strong team unity have made him a popular option within the dressing room.
Other names, such as Didier Deschamps, are also being considered, but the final decision will rest with Perez as Madrid aim to restore stability and success at the Santiago Bernabéu.
