Dominic Matteo names manager he thinks should replace Jurgen Klopp at LiverpoolDAZN
The German will leave Anfield at the end of the season.
Dominic Matteo has thrown his support behind Ange Postecoglou as the man he believes should replace Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool boss. 

The German will step down as Red's manager at the end of the season, and a number of names have been linked with replacing him in the Anfield dugout. Xabi Alonso ruled himself out of the job last month, while Sporting Lisbon's Ruben Amorim seems to be the current favourite for the post. 

However, former Liverpool defender Matteo has been impressed by Tottenham's Australian gaffer and is backing Postecoglou for the job. 

“In terms of who replaces Jurgen Klopp, it has to be Ange Postecoglou at Spurs for me,” he told William Hill

“He plays the right style of football which would be suited at Liverpool and I don’t think the nature of the job would get to him. I’ve been impressed with his first season at Spurs – the way he deals with the media and the way his team plays on the front foot is admirable.

“He seems to be an excellent man-manager which is needed at this high level of the game – particularly at a club like Liverpool – plus he can deal with the pressure and has won silverware. It seems Xabi Alonso has chosen to not pursue the job at this stage of his career and Ruben Amorim and Roberto De Zerbi are other managers on the list who could be available, but Postecoglou should be their first choice.”
