Liverpool’s search for a new manager might be drawing to a conclusion quicker than some imagined.
After Xabi Alonso ruled himself out of the running over the weekend, many Liverpool fans expected to the quest for a new boss to take some time.
A number of names are being linked with replacing Jurgen Klopp as it stands.
The likes of Roberto De Zerbi, Ruben Amorim and Julian Nagelsmann have all been credited with being on Liverpool’s list. Meanwhile, Italian coach Simone Inzaghi is also admired, albeit he looks set to follow in Alonso’s footsteps and reject the job.
However, there is apparently one coach who won’t be rejecting the Liverpool job, according to reports.
39-year-old manager wants to take the Liverpool job
One of the names being linked heavily with the job is Sporting Lisbon coach, Ruben Amorim.
The 39-year-old has built a reputation over in Portugal as one of the best young managers emerging in Europe right now.
And according to a report from Correio De Manha, Amorim is ready to accept the Liverpool job if he is indeed offered it by FSG.

It’s also claimed that Amorim likes the idea of a club that plays attacking football and has a focus on developing young talent as well.
As we know, Liverpool have a host of young players coming along right now, with the likes of Conor Bradley and Jarrell Quansah impressing, and Jayden Danns making waves as well.
Ruben Amorim could be ideal for Liverpool
Lauded as a ‘special‘ manager by Fabrizio Romano, Amorim has very much looked the part at Sporting.
For Liverpool fans, the exciting brand of football he plays is something that will be attractive to them and at 39, this is a coach that could stick around for some time.
Of course, replacing Klopp comes with a big pressure and Amorim might well have to adjust a lot to get things going how he likes.
But with so many young players, mixed with a squad full of brilliant attacking players, Amorim could well be the ideal candidate at Anfield right now.
