Jürgen Klopp announced a few weeks ago that he will leave at the end of the season Liverpool, simply because he got tired after nine years of working at “Enfield”. During that time, Klopp managed to put the club on “sound foundations” and bring him the long-awaited Premier League trophy (in 2020 they were champions), but in addition he played in three Champions League finals (he won the cup in 2019/20 ), as well as two more trophies in the League Cup, one in the FA Cup, the UEFA Super Cup, the FIFA Club World Cup…
Therefore, his legacy is huge, it can hardly be measured only by trophies, so it is already clear that the owners of Liverpool will have a difficult task to replace him. There was speculation about certain coaches from the Island, above all Fr Robert de Zerbijuthere was serious talk about Frog Alonso from Leverkusen, but the Spaniard decided to stay in the same place. Now a new name has come to the fore.
According to information from Sky Sport, the new coach of Liverpool will be the young Portuguese strategist Ruben Amorim. Well-known journalist Florian Plattenberg announced that Amorim reached a verbal agreement with Liverpool and is most likely to sign until 2027. The obstacle was his clause in the contract with Sporting, since it is necessary to pay 20 million euros for his freedom. Apparently, Liverpool and Sporting will meet at ten.
There was a lot of interest in the talented Amorim, who with Sporting managed to “remove the curse” and win the title in 2021 and is on his way to do it again this season. Bayern and Chelsea inquired the most, so it seems that is why Liverpool decided to hurry up and agree everything with the Portuguese.
Amorim led Sporting in over 200 games, while before that he was also the coach of Braga. Cultivates an offensive style of football and modern concepts. During his playing days, we mostly remember him as a Benfica footballer.
