Liverpool already planning to replace Rodgers.
Liverpool have already spoken to the representatives of two managers to potentially replace the struggling Brendan Rodgers at Anfield, including former Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti.
The Reds are unhappy with Rodgers’ performance as manager so far this season, and are still working on bringing in a new head coach despite a 3-2 win over Aston Villa this weekend.
According to the Daily Express, Liverpool have learned that Ancelotti would not be available until December, though former Borussia Dortmund manager Jurgen Klopp would be willing to take over immediately.
