Revealed: How much it could cost Liverpool to prise Ruben Amorim from Sporting Lisbon to replace Jurgen Klopp, after Xabi Alonso confirmed he’s staying at Bayer Leverkusen

According to a new report, Liverpool could bring Sporting Lisbon manager Rubén Amorim to their bench for a relatively cheap price.

Jurgen Klopp will step down as Reds manager this summer after nine years at Anfield, and potential replacement Xabi Alonso confirmed on Friday that he will stay at Bayer Leverkusen rather than change jobs.

With Brighton’s Roberto De Zerbi and Germany manager Julian Nagelsmann among the options Liverpool are considering, there are plenty of options available as the Merseyside club look to put the Klopp era behind them.

AND The Telegraph report that signing the Sporting Lisbon coach could cost just €15m (or £12.8m) this summer, as that is the release clause in 39-year-old Amorim’s deal with the Portuguese club.

If they were to wait until the summer of 2025, that price would drop to €10m, or £8.5m, which also allows Liverpool some movement in a potential deal.
