Liverpool confident of Klopp as Brendan Rodgers' replacement


Liverpool want Jurgen Klopp to replace Brendan Rodgers and the German has indicated his interest in becoming the club’s new manager, Goal understands.


Official talks between Liverpool and Klopp will take place this week with the club confident of appointing a new manager ahead of their next fixture away at Tottenham on October 17.

Klopp won two Bundesliga titles during seven years with Borussia Dortmund and is considered by Liverpool owner Fenway Sports Group as an ideal fit to take over at Anfield.

The club sounded out the 48-year-old over the summer but kept faith with Rodgers after being told that Klopp was not yet ready for a new job after leaving Dortmund at the end of last season.

Now Klopp is ready to return to management and is attracted by the prospect of fulfilling his ambition to manage in the Premier League at a historic club like Liverpool.
