Liverpool are assessing Jurgen Klopp’s replacement for next season

The manager of Manchester City, Pep Guardiola, admires one of the possible successors for Jurgen Klopp after his tenure at Liverpool. One of the most promising young coaches in Europe, Ruben Amorim of Sporting, will be among the choices available to the Reds as they search for Klopp’s replacement.

The Titans of Merseyside are searching far and wide for a coach who can guarantee that they stay a big force in both the Premier League and the Champions League, where they will almost definitely make a return next season.

Ruben Amorim is a successful young coach who employs an energetic, attack-minded methodology. His Sporting team, led by Sebastian Coates, a former Liverpool defender, is by far the top scorer in

Amorim, who briefly won the Taca da Liga (also known as the Portuguese League Cup) with Braga before joining Sporting, has performed admirably since his appointment in March 2020. In 2020–21, he led them to their first league title in 19 years. That same season, he also won the League Cup, which they kept the next year.

The player with a nearly 70% winning percentage, who led the Lions to just their second-ever Champions League last-16 appearance in 2021–2022, is aiming for another league and cup double this season with the Taca de Portugal. Amorim, who is still only 39, has created a great deal of buzz and anticipation while he has been in Lisbon.

Guardiola, the City mastermind, has even endorsed the coach, who happens to have an agent named Luis Diaz. In February of last year, the Catalan stated:

“From my point of view, their coach is one of the best at the moment.”

Amorim is so highly valued, however, that it would take £17 million to remove him from his 2026 Sporting deal. When Sporting stole him from Braga four years ago, it cost them £8 million. Additionally, club president Frederico Varandas called him “one of the best coaches in the world” when he decided to extend his contract in late 2022.
