Surprising news emerged this morning as long-time Liverpool managerial target, Ruben Amorim, enters talks with West Ham United.
Given West Ham’s lack of historical success compared to Liverpool, this move has raised eyebrows and suggests West Ham might have something unexpected in the works.
Liverpool seems to be swiftly considering other options, with Brentford’s Thomas Frank emerging as a potential backup choice if Amorim chooses West Ham, as reported by TeamTalk.
Frank has proven himself as a capable manager and motivator, but with Brentford’s recent struggles against relegation, questions arise about his ability to manage a high-profile team. If Amorim opts for West Ham, Liverpool’s interest in Frank is likely to intensify.
Should this scenario play out and if Mo Salah departs, it remains to be seen if players like Ivan Toney would follow Frank to Liverpool.
At this point, everything is preliminary, and the situation hinges on Amorim’s final decision.
