All good things come to an end. The same goes for Anfield, where 2023/24 will be the last season of the Jurgen Klopp era. No one saw this sporting news when Klopp announced to fans that he would be leaving at the end of the season.
The main reason was that he needed rest and orchestrated this to keep United alive. It has maintained consistent returns for over 8 years.As always after a manager’s departure, attention quickly turned to the question of a possible replacement for the German manager, with punters taking time to assess the latest casino bonuses and gauge the odds of becoming Liverpool’s next manager. Many names have been mentioned and no doubt there will be many more before the appointment is confirmed, but here we will pick the most likely candidates.
Xabi Alonso: Xabi Alonso has become the first name on many Liverpool fans’ lips thanks to his success at Bayer Leverkusen and his performances in midfield at Anfield. His contract situation and rumors of a move to former clubs such as Liverpool further fuel speculation over his appointment. First row winner.
Roger Schmidt: Roger Schmidt won the Austrian championship with RB Salzburg in 2013/2014. This is a significant achievement but standard fare for the dominant force in the Austrian game. But his performance in leading Benfica to the Premier League title last season cemented his status among the best managers in Europe. Benfica’s team this season is Sporting Lisbon, currently led by a certain manager.
Ruben Amorim: The Sporting coach, known for his attacking tactics, looks a strong candidate to take over from Klopp’s ‘heavy metal’ game. Many reports have him on the Reds’ shortlist and it’s no surprise that Amorim’s qualifications rival those of Xabi Alonso. Especially his understanding of the dynamics of the club. Sporting’s €20 million release clause makes it interesting that he could leave.
Ange Postecoglou: Ange Postecoglou attracted a lot of attention during his successful spell at Celtic, including speculation linking him to Liverpool.However, the timing did not match the vacant position of manager of the Reds. Postecoglou enjoyed a satisfying spell at Tottenham and his innovative style of play, known as ‘Angeball’, earned him plaudits from Tottenham fans. His youthful loyalty to Liverpool may be nostalgic, but he may not want to leave Tottenham’s draft so early.
