The two favourites for the Liverpool job are no longer thought to be in the running and the manager market looks sparse. Jose Mourinho as an interim it is.
What Liverpool might do is stand by their ‘brave over popular’ remit for the Klopp successor search and go down a route Bayern Munich are said to be considering: an interim appointment before going all out on Alonso in 2025. In which case, who could take the Anfield wheel on an entirely provisional basis?
Mourinho has been intrinsically linked with Liverpool since. He has faced them more times than any other opponent, winning his first trophy in English football and losing two Champions League semi-finals against the Reds. Mourinho’s stock is low after a fourth straight sacking, the first three of which came in the Premier League. He is openly discussing the prospect of managing West Ham or Brighton. His reputation among the elite is indelibly tarnished and it is impossible to shake the sense that the game has moved on.
Those ill-advised seven months at Everton undoubtedly spoiled that connection somewhat, even if Agent Rafa doing his utmost to relegate the Toffees should have strengthened the bond.
