As a result of Xabi Alonso’s elimination from consideration for the position of manager at Liverpool, many people are now focusing their attention on Ruben Amorim, who might be available for a significant amount of money.

The release clause in Amorim’s contract, which can be activated at the conclusion of this season, is worth fifteen million euros, according to a story that was published by Jason Burt and Chris Bascombe for the English newspaper Telegraph Sport.

The option, which was agreed upon with Sporting Lisbon, will be reduced to €10 million (£8.5 million) in the summer of 2025.

The fact that it is in place means that it will be simpler for Liverpool to reach an agreement with the Portuguese club in the event that they ultimately decide to make a move for the highly regarded 39-year-old player.

Due to the fact that the manager of Bayer Leverkusen has confirmed that he will not be available until the summer of 2025 at the earliest, the Reds may be forced to choose between the manager of Sporting Lisbon and the manager of the Spanish-speaking club.

If the 39-year-old player from Portugal were to be desired at that time, the transfer fee would amount to £8.5 million; however, we are all aware that our need for a new manager is significantly more urgent than that at this point in time.

As a result, the amount of €15 million, which is equivalent to £12.8 million, is the one that is most likely to be required of us in order to entice the former Braga player away from the side that is presently in the first spot in Primeira Liga.

Richard Hughes and Michael Edwards will be putting together a list of possible successors to the 56-year-old who is presently serving in the position, and it is becoming more and more likely that the Portuguese coach will be included on the list.

The release clauses that have been proposed are well within our financial means, and let us keep our fingers crossed that we will be able to get the services of the individual who is considered to be the ideal candidate.
