After nearly nine years as manager at Anfield, Jurgen Klopp is leaving Liverpool at the end of the season.
He is in his final season with the team, aiming to win the Premier League and Europa League championships, and the team is looking to come together as one to finish the season on a high note.
The main topic of discussion is who will replace the famous German general. A young European leader has been mentioned as a candidate, and Xabi Alonso, who is in charge of Bayer Leverkusen, was seen as the most likely candidate, but it appears that he will be staying on next season.
Although no official announcement has been made yet, Liverpool will not be attached to the Spanish conductor any longer.
Fabrizio Romano reported that discussions are underway within the club about options and that several managers are being considered, including Ruben Amorim.
“Liverpool won’t wait anymore for Xabi Alonso — as Ruben Amorim will be an option already discussed internally, not the only one.”
“Bayern are prepared to wait until Xabi make official decision, but he’s expected to stay at Leverkusen until June 2025… with release clause.”

Unlike Liverpool, Bayern Munich has its sights set on Xabi Alonso until the last minute
Bayern Munich is ready to pull the plug on their struggling Leverkusen side this season, weakening their opponents and putting them back in gear to win the Bundesliga title, which they have been struggling to do this season.
Will Liverpool be able to find a Portuguese coach, or is there a future for a manager whose name has not been mentioned so far, to take the reigns at Anfield?
