Amidst speculation about his future, Sporting Lisbon manager Ruben Amorim has emerged as a potential replacement for Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool. However, West Ham United has surprisingly thrown their hat into the ring and reportedly engaged in talks with Amorim.
Current West Ham manager David Moyes faces an uncertain future following a Europa League exit and a heavy Premier League defeat to Crystal Palace. The Hammers have earmarked Amorim as their top managerial target, ahead of former Spain and Real Madrid boss Julen Lopetegui.
With Amorim potentially out of their reach, Liverpool must broaden their search for Klopp’s successor. Brighton’s Roberto De Zerbi, Brentford’s Thomas Frank, and Celtic’s Ange Postecoglou are among the candidates under consideration. Jose Mourinho’s links to Liverpool remain unconfirmed, despite his recent attendance at a Reds match.
West Ham’s interest in Amorim adds another layer to the managerial merry-go-round. The Portuguese coach has been linked with Barcelona in the past, and his €15m release clause could pose a challenge for the La Liga giants.
Liverpool’s search for Klopp’s replacement continues, with Amorim and other potential candidates vying for the role. As the season draws to a close, the managerial landscape in England could undergo significant changes, with West Ham’s unexpected pursuit of Amorim adding to the intrigue.
