In the midst of Mauricio Pochettino’s departure negotiations, an unexpected twist has emerged: the potential appointment of Chelsea’s manager as the next head of Liverpool.
Calls have been made for Liverpool to consider making a surprising bid for Mauricio Pochettino as the tenure of Jurgen Klopp draws to a close. Klopp is set to oversee his final six matches at Anfield.
Should Liverpool fail to improve upon their performance from the first leg of the Europa League against Atalanta, their sole focus will shift to the Premier League title race. With only two points behind the current leaders Manchester City, both Liverpool and Ars
enal have six games remaining in the season.
The frontrunner to succeed Klopp appears to be Ruben Amorim of Sporting CP, who recently led Liverpool to their seventh major championship in nine years by defeating Chelsea in the Carabao Cup final. However, speculation regarding Klopp’s successor remains rife.
Former Chelsea and Liverpool defender Glen Johnson has voiced his apprehensions, suggesting that Liverpool should consider Pochettino as a viable candidate. Johnson emphasized Pochettino’s managerial prowess and suggested that inheriting Liverpool’s talented squad could lead to success at Anfield.
Despite concerns about the challenging task of replacing Klopp, Johnson believes that Pochettino’s track record and ability to capture attention could make him a compelling choice for Liverpool.
In essence, while Pochettino’s potential appointment may seem unconventional, Johnson argues that his managerial capabilities and the quality of Liverpool’s squad could pave the way for success at Anfield.
