Liverpool assistant manager Pep Lijnders is attracting interest from RB Salzburg, according to reports. It has been confirmed that Lijnders will be leaving Anfield at the end of the season, following in the footsteps of manager Jurgen Klopp.
The Times has revealed that Lijnders could potentially make a move to Austria, with RB Salzburg keen to secure his services as their new head coach for the upcoming summer. This news comes as no surprise, considering Salzburg’s dominance in the Austrian league, having clinched the title for ten consecutive years.
As the current season nears its end, Salzburg finds themselves trailing Sturm Graz by just two points in the league standings. With only one round remaining, the title race is still wide open and the appointment of Lijnders could provide a significant boost to Salzburg’s chances of reclaiming their crown.
Lijnders’ potential move to RB Salzburg would mark a new chapter in his coaching career. Having gained valuable experience working alongside Klopp at Liverpool, he is now ready to take on the challenge of leading a team on his own. Salzburg’s interest in him is a testament to his reputation and the impact he has made during his time at Anfield.
With his departure from Liverpool imminent, Lijnders will be looking to make an impact in his new role and continue his development as a coach. The opportunity to work with a club like RB Salzburg, known for their success and commitment to developing young talent, could be the perfect platform for him to showcase his abilities.
As the summer approaches, it remains to be seen whether Lijnders will indeed make the move to RB Salzburg. However, if this transfer does materialize, it will undoubtedly be an exciting new chapter for both Lijnders and the Austrian club.
