As Klopp has announced that he will leave the club with just over a month to the end of the season, Liverpool is making plans for that departure.
The club can fight for the Premier League Title and the Europa League crown until the end of the season with a maximum of 13 games left before the manager’s departure.
In the middle of a pretty competitive title race, Liverpool maintains the lead but is largely dependent on the fixtures that are the most crucial, with one of them being a very important clash against Manchester United.
The Reds need to work hard to stay at the top of the table, where they currently have only a small lead over their closest challengers, Arsenal and Manchester City.
With the end of their era Klopp approaching, Liverpool is effectively searching for the person who will take responsibility. The name of Rúben Amorim has been mentioned among the best candidates, who had to replace Xabi Alonso, who left the race.
It is this change of management that fuels speculation about possible new signings as the club’s new coach now would want to put his individual touch on the squad.

What is the update regarding the potential transfer at Liverpool?
During these adjustments alongside Liverpool, Schalke’s promising player, Assan Ouédraogo, could be under Liverpool’s eyes. This 17-year-old’s progress is outstanding, as he has already scored the youngest goal ever in Schalke’s history.
Nevertheless, despite Schalke’s unsuccessful season in the German second division, Ouédraogo’s talents have not gone unnoticed, as he is highly scouted with his performances for Germany’s youth teams used by several super clubs as a reference point.
Ouédraogo is the equivalent of Paul Pogba, who is popular for his play style, and he has a contract with Schalke until 2027.
Nevertheless, his contract is limited with a release clause equivalent to $22 million just ($17 million/ € 20 million), which makes him a suitable player in bigger clubs.
Besides these clubs (Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United, and Bayern Munich), the above provision is also under consideration. Bayern München has already held talks with his representatives, hence, the club shows quite serious interest in hiring him.
Since the days of Liverpool as a club, the strategy has always been directed at acquiring promising young talents from around the world. And being Ouédraogo’s profile is consistent with the pattern.
Liverpool earned a notable reputation for their enthusiasm to embrace young individuals and involve them in the first-team squad. This might also serve as an opportunity for Ouédraogo to continue his growth and further perfect his skills.
