The Liverpool management is closely monitoring the work of Brighton head coach Roberto De Zerbi. He is seen as one of the main candidates to replace German specialist Jurgen Klopp, who will leave Merseyside at the end of this season, Sport.es reports.
According to the source, Liverpool's bosses want to sign Bayer Leverkusen's head coach Xabi Alonso first, but they understand that he is likely to take over at Bayern Munich or stay at the Leverkusen club. In this case, the Merseysiders will try to sign De Zerbi.
