Liverpool apparently have prepared a backup name after failing to get Xabi Alonso.

Xabi Alonso is the name most often associated with Liverpool when looking for a new club.
The Bayer Leverkusen coach finally made a clear decision regarding his future.

Alonso chose to stay at Bayer Leverkusen next season.
The man from Spain is estimated to be ready to move clubs in 2025.
At that time, Alonso's release clause at Bayer Leverkusen will be active.
Liverpool clearly cannot wait that long considering that Juergen Klopp has decided to leave at the end of this season.
The Reds management considers Alonso's situation as a sign to act quickly on other candidates.

Reporting from Sky Sports, Liverpool is now starting to move closer to Sporting CP coach, Ruben Amorim.
The progress of the 39 year old coach has attracted the attention of other European continental clubs since 2020.
Ruben Amorim proved that he is capable of bringing the title to Sporting CP.
Since the last four seasons, he has succeeded in winning two Portuguese League titles, one Portuguese Cup trophy and one Portuguese Super Cup.
Furthermore, Amorim meets Liverpool's requirements of wanting continuity at the club.
At a young age, Amorim is ready to undertake a long contract at Liverpool.
The Portuguese man is also famous for his investment in young players.

Klopp's final season at Liverpool was marked by the emergence of talented young players.
Klopp even relied on these young players to win the English League Cup.
With Amorim's presence, the abilities of Liverpool's young players will not be wasted even if they change coaches.
Thanks to these qualities, Amorim is now the strongest candidate to replace Klopp.
Liverpool management has actually prepared a number of other names.
Brighton & Hove Albion coach, Roberto De Zerbi, is also on the list.
However, Amorim has more priority and Liverpool is ready to submit the first proposal to Sporting CP.
