JAKARTA - Tottenham Hotspur Manager Ange Postecoglu is one of the candidates to replace Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool. However, Postechoglu admitted that he was not interested in the rumors.

Liverpol is still touching and looking for a new manager to replace Klopp. The figure of Xabi Alonso, who is currently coaching Bayer Leverkusen, still occupies the top position as a Klopp successor.

Next is the legend, Steven Gerrard, who is currently training in Saudi Arabia. However, Gerrard is not taken into account.

If you still want Alonso, Liverpool will face stiff competition with Bayern Munich.

The German Bundesliga giant suddenly competed for Alonso. Because of Bayern's poor achievements in the last two matches, coach Thomas Tuchel was threatened with dismissal.

Even Tuchel's dismissal is just a matter of time, whether to be laid off in the middle of a competition or wait until the end of the season.

Apart from Alonso, British media called Postecoglou a candidate to replace Klopp. The man from Australia is considered quite successful in dealing with Tottenham.

Even though they still need consistency, Tottenham survives in the top four. If they remain in that position, The Lilywhites will be returned to compete in the Champions League.

However, Postecoglu was surprised when the media said that he was reported to be one of the candidates to coach the Reds.

"I'm on the list? So I can't say anything because it's not even included in my brain. It's not even a priority in my life and profession," said Postecoglu.

"Besides, I just started at Tottenham. I never thought about it. I've only been here for seven months. So, that's an explanation," he said again.

When asked about the issue of Klopp's replacement, he did not want to respond. According to him, this is nothing more than a meaningless chat.

"It's just gossip, isn't it? So I'm not interested about that," said the former Celtic manager.

In addition, Postecogu admitted that he only focused on Tottenham. Moreover, he still has to work hard to build a strong foundation for the team.

"We are still trying to build a strong foundation. This can only be done if I fully focus on the team. The competition is still 14 games away," he said.

Tottenham returned to a crucial match in the Premier League competition this weekend.

The North London team host Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Saturday, February 16, 204 evening WIB.
