The successor of Jurgen Klopp on the Liverpool bench for next season is still up in the air. Ruben Amorim It seems that the candidate chosen by the board of the Anfield club, but on Thursday the coach of Sporting de Portugal himself came out against the information that appeared about his future by ensuring that “there is no interview, let alone an agreement” in the ‘ networks .
After these forceful statements, the name of a new coach linked to the Liverpool bench now appears in surprise. It is, according to the Daily Mail, Nico Kovac. The Croatian, who has coached Eintracht Frankfurt, Bayern Munich and Monaco in recent years, has been without a team since he was sacked by Wolfsburg in March.
There were no formal negotiations
According to the aforementioned British media, Liverpool has not yet formally started negotiations with any coach, but is conducting a solid process of collecting information and data on its preferred candidates.
In its part, Kovac’s representatives were in London recently and they would have sounded out Premier League clubs about possible changes to their benches this summer.
Kovac was born 52 years ago in Berlin but during his career as a defensive midfielder he was captain of the Croatian national team. As a coach, he won the DFB Pokal with Eintracht in 2018 before achieving the German double in charge of Bayern a year later. Between 2020 and 2022 he coached in Monaco.
Although his move to Wolfsburg is cautious (2020-2022), Kovac is also attracting interest from a Bundesliga club.
