With the passing of the hours, the topic of Jürgen Klopp's departure from Liverpool has been calming down more and more, leaving aside the sentimentality towards their coach to start thinking about the replacement proposals that the institution may have once the summer arrives, and although Xabi Alonso has been initially put as the first great replacement option, it seems that the words of Klopp's eternal rival, the Spanish Pep Guardiola, could influence the final decision of the Merseyside team.

A couple of months ago, the Manchester City coach had told the media about the good work being done by Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi, congratulating him for his qualification to this year's Europa League and for his great performance with the Seagulls, and Pep was very convinced of everything he argued about the Italian tactician, who is now a clear option to be the new leader of the Reds.
These words of Guardiola are very helpful to guide a Liverpool team that must still be digesting this unexpected news for many, making De Zerbi at this very moment the most realistic and feasible option in the face of a not so encouraging response from Xabi Alonso who has said he is only focused on what is happening with his environment at Bayern Leverkusen.
Although the rivalry between Klopp and Guardiola will end by the summer, the Liverpool team is aware that its objective is to continue fighting alongside Manchester City for all the titles that are disputed, being Roberto De Zerbi a good prospect who has yet to prove his worth at Brighton to be the one to inherit Klopp's position, He has obtained a sixth place in his first tournament with the Seagulls, but things have been more complicated in this edition due to the losses of the institution, placing them seventh overall with 32 points, above clubs such as Manchester United, Newcastle and Chelsea.

Despite Liverpool being a much more viable option for coaches like Xabi Alonso and Roberto De Zerbi, it is certain that these two strategists could be seduced by the ease of reaching the two best clubs in Spain, being Barcelona the most interested in the Italian from Brighton, while Real Madrid, for its part, has left clues about its continued interest in the leader of Bayern Leverkusen, the Reds running a great danger of not being able to get who they want due to constant indecision.
