The fans choice for many, but Klopp is not the only one reportedly keen on the Liverpool job
It probably wouldn’t be anywhere in his top five favourite lines to read prior to what has been billed as the biggest game of Brendan Rodgers’ Liverpool career but according to reports, several of the top managers in European football are forming an orderly queue to replace him.
Starting with one that hasn’t been named to much recently, Frank de Boer, Ajax manager, has spoken fondly of the club this week. The former Dutch international has managed the Amsterdam-based club for the past five years, winning four league titles in that time and he is believed to be looking for a new challenge after this season.
The former Barcelona defender mentioned LFC this week, saying that it is a fantastic club and speaking very positively indeed. The timing of his comments are quite telling however, considering that Rodgers’ future is very much on the line, at present.
Elsewhere both Carlo Ancelotti and Jurgen Klopp have again been heavily linked with the Reds since Friday afternoon, with Ancelotti reportedly having met representatives of the club in New York this week. Ancelotti has indeed been in NY too, making those claims quite interesting, as pictures of his surfaced with former players of his: Frank Lampard and Andrea Pirlo.
The former AC Milan and Madrid manager has spoken before of his admiration for Liverpool and the clubs’ fanbase, with many claiming that he would be the clubs’ first choice, should Rodgers be sacked.
On the other hand, there have been equally as many reports that Klopp will be the next Reds boss, with reports that he met with club officials after he supposedly traveled to the UK to speak with an unnamed Premier League club. Obviously, that means there are as many as twenty clubs that he could’ve come to speak to, it it’s even true, but the conclusion most jumped to was that he was coming to Anfield.
It cannot be reiterated enough that these reports are all based on unverified claims, other than the fact that Frank de Boer did speak of his admiration for the club, and Ancelotti was actually in the Big Apple. But with Rodgers’ position looking likely to be untenable if the derby is lost tomorrow, at least one of those links may become reality in the next seven days.
Do you believe Rodgers should be sack and, if so, which of the above three would you prefer to manage LFC? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
