Frank responds to question about replacing Klopp
Thomas Frank, the Brentford boss, has been named among some of the favorites to take over at Liverpool this summer, following his successful spell at the Gtech Community Stadium. When asked about the prospect of replacing Jurgen Klopp at Anfield, Frank responded openly. He admitted to having ambitions for his career but kept his cards fairly close to his chest. In an interview with Danish outlet Tipsbladet, Frank said, “Yeah, I keep up with things and have seen that Xavi and Klopp are leaving. Regarding myself, I’m insanely happy to be here. I’ve said that before. I have the opportunity to pursue many of my ambitions. Like everyone else, I also have ambitions, but it’s hard to say exactly what they are. I understand that we need some good performances and to win some football matches, and that’s my main focus right now.”
Teenage midfielder interest & more Salah nonsense

In other news, Egypt’s new manager recently criticized Mohamed Salah for returning to Liverpool for treatment. The situation has become a bit strange as tensions continue to rise.
