He has done an outstanding job at Liverpool, and if it wasn’t for Pep Guardiola‘s Manchester City, he’d have had a few more trophies under his belt at Anfield.

Liverpool have slipped up over the last 10 days and are now third in the Premier League table.

They need a huge comeback in the Europa League as well to qualify for the semi-finals.

All eyes will be on that in the next few weeks, but Michael Edwards and Richard Hughes are expected to speed up the process of finding the new Liverpool manager.

Caixinha has now delivered his verdict on one of the Reds’ key targets to replace Klopp.

Ruben Amorim has been heavily linked with the Liverpool job over the last month or so.

The 39-year-old has done an amazing job at Sporting Lisbon.

Numerous reports have claimed that Amorim is the favourite to become the next Liverpool manager.

Another worry for some fans is that Amorim has never managed in the Premier League or even the top-five leagues in Europe.

Caixinha, who has over two decades of experience as a manager, has now come out and claimed that Amorim is definitely ready to become the next Liverpool boss.

He said on the Final Cut podcast: “Ruben Amorim is ready for Liverpool and I don’t think he’s too young.

He’s very proud, incisive, but he knows that the path is there and it’s for him, and that everyone has to follow it.”

Liverpool will likely accelerate their plans to appoint Jurgen Klopp’s successor in the coming weeks.

Ruben Amorim is the only name on the Reds’ wish list right now, and all signs point towards him becoming the next Reds manager.

If Amorim does end up at Liverpool this summer, the Portuguese will have the chance to make Premier League history by becoming the youngest-ever manager to win the title.

Jose Mourinho currently holds that record – he won the Premier League with Chelsea in 2005, when he was just 42 years and 94 days old.

Amorim will turn 42 only in 2027, which means he will have about three years to break Mourinho’s record if he becomes Liverpool’s manager this summer.
