Ornstein even suggested that the Reds may be prepared to be ‘brave’ and hire a surprise name.

And in that spirit, we think Liverpool can take a note out of Arsenal’s book and hire a manager who could very well emulate Gunners’ manager Mikel Arteta.

Of course, the perfect ‘Arteta route’ for Liverpool would have been to go and get Xabi Alonso.



Amorim is perhaps the stand-out of those possibilities having already won titles in his short career on the touchline so far.

However, if Liverpool are looking to be ‘brave’ and go for some outside of the box thinking, we’d put forward another former midfielder as a possible candidate – Borussia Dortmund assistant manager Nuri Sahin.

Like Alonso and Arteta, Sahin is a former midfielder – and a silky one at that.

His playing career took him to Dortmund, Liverpool and Real Madrid where he learnt under some great managers, including Klopp himself.

An intelligent and obviously studious midfielder, it was apparent that Sahin might make a good manager.

Having done reasonably there, Sahin moved back to Germany and to Dortmund in January this year.

As an assistant manager at a top club, Sahin’s work now mirrors that done by Arteta before he joined Arsenal.

The 42-year-old was Pep Guardiola’s assistant at Manchester City for three years before moving to the Emirates Stadium.

Having already been a head coach, Sahin is more experienced than Arteta was when taking the Arsenal job in 2019.
