Liverpool fans have been told that the Reds could make an unpopular appointment this summer.
When it comes to replacing Jurgen Klopp as manager this summer, Liverpool is still keeping their options under wraps, but they are apparently willing to make decisions without giving much thought to what the general public thinks.
After former Reds star Xabi Alonso declared last month that he would not be pursuing the role and would instead continue with Bayer Leverkusen, Sporting coach Ruben Amorim has been considered the front-runner.
Amorim is “in the mix… but not a shoo-in,” according to David Ornstein of the Athletic, who asserts that the Liverpool hierarchy will not be influenced by outside opinions over who they should choose to succeed Klopp.

After a “genuinely thorough and broad process,” other applicants have been found for the position, and it is anticipated that offers of interviews will be extended soon.
“Playing style and identity” have been prioritized over celebrity recognition in this process. Having a proven track record of player growth, being physically fit, and having solid bonds with a picky fan base will also be taken into account.
Recent reports from other sources indicate that Roberto de Zerbi, the manager of Brighton and Hove Albion, is not being considered.
The Seagulls had a strong start to the Premier League season and advanced to the Europa League knockout rounds, but they have struggled for a number of months, with their inability to play together defensively being a major problem. Still, according to the bookies, De Zerbi is the second choice for the Liverpool position.
This Is Anfield speculates that Gary O’Neil, the manager of Bournemouth, might surprise Liverpool with a call-up, given his odds have dropped to the point where he is currently fourth favorite for the position.
Thiago Motta is currently third-favourite following his agent’s not-so-cryptic comments on his longer-term future at Bologna.
