According to reports, Liverpool’s new manager has agreed a contract.

Because of connections to the Liverpool manager’s position, Nagelsmann has held negotiations with a number of interested teams but has turned them all down.

With Julian Nagelsmann agreeing to a new contract with the Germany national team, Liverpool now has less options when searching for Jurgen Klopp’s replacement.

The 36-year-old’s contract was originally intended to end with this summer’s home European Championships, when he was first chosen as interim manager. He has since decided to serve a longer term, citing “a decision of the heart” for the change.

Although Nagelsmann was never seen as the front-runner, he was briefly associated with the Liverpool role. His representative, Volker Struth, disclosed that his client had discussions with several European clubs and Bayern Munich, but all of them were passed up in favour of the national squad.

In an interview with the Spielmacher podcast, Struth stated, “It would be absurd to claim that we are not speaking with potential investors without first requesting their identity. I just have one thing to say: it’s not just Bayern Munich.”

Nevertheless, Nagelsmann has signed a new two-year contract with Germany, as the DFB has officially verified. After taking over for Hansi Flick in September, the coach has won three of his six games in charge, and he will remain in the position until after the 2026 World Cup.

In the meantime, Niko Kovac and Roberto De Zerbi are still included in the picture of conjecture, with Ruben Amorim being portrayed as the front-runner for the Liverpool job. As Liverpool continues their hunt, the ECHO disclosed that, in contrast to claims, no verbal agreement has been reached with Amorim.

More rumours have been stoked by journalist Pedro Sepulveda’s accusation that Amorim’s agent purchased a new home in Liverpool for one of his staff members. There are still rumours circulating about talks between Liverpool and the coach of Sporting Lisbon.

Transfers from Liverpool: 32-year-old getting ready to quit Reds while awaiting a medical

An eight-year team veteran is expected to leave Liverpool during the summer transfer window. His only separation from an exit is a medical.

Joel Matip has been offered to Fenerbahce by his agents, according to Turkish publication Sabah. The defender’s contract expires at the end of the current campaign, and this rumour claims Liverpool will not extend it.

Fenerbahce is interested in signing him, which creates an opening. But before any settlement is made, there’s a clear standoff.

Matip is not likely to play again this season after suffering an ACL tear months ago. He should be back to normal by June, but nobody can promise that until they have a medical report.

Fenerbahce will therefore have to wait for the findings of a report before making a formal bid for Matip. Everything else depends on his fitness, even if it is commonly anticipated that he will depart Liverpool at the end of his contract.

Joel Matip is headed out of Liverpool.

Matip is leaving with a heavy heart, and it’s completely unwarranted. Given his advanced age and the uncertainty surrounding his long-term fitness, we do believe he will depart, but things really shouldn’t be this way.

Being one of Jurgen Klopp’s first signings and coming on a free transfer, Matip has been an amazing helper. Fewer signings have been better, and perhaps none better financially.

However, the manager’s change solidifies the departure. We’re not sure if Matip needs to sign a new contract on such harsh terms, but we wonder what would happen if he did.

If Matip can demonstrate his fitness, many teams will be willing to take a chance on him because of his excellent calibre throughout the previous eight seasons. He should be able to make a wise move, and hopefully he will
