Recent reports have shifted the focus away from Ruben Amorim as the next Liverpool manager, with Roberto De Zerbi emerging as a top contender for the role, according to Jamie Carragher. The search for Jurgen Klopp’s successor at Anfield continues, and after Amorim’s potential move to West Ham surfaced, De Zerbi has gained traction in the race for the managerial position.
West Ham’s interest in De Zerbi has created a new dynamic in the manager search, with Carragher pointing out that the Italian manager is now a strong candidate based on previous interest from Richard Hughes during his time at Bournemouth. De Zerbi’s successful tenure at Brighton, leading them to the Europa League last-16 and establishing them in Europe for the first time, has impressed many and drawn attention from other top clubs like Bayern Munich and Barcelona.
Liverpool’s pursuit of De Zerbi may face competition given his rising reputation among the new generation of managers and his tactical acumen, which was evident in Brighton’s strong Premier League finish last season. While the Italian manager’s future remains uncertain, Liverpool’s interest in Amorim from Sporting Lisbon lingers, leaving fans eager to see where the talented young manager will land for the upcoming season.
