Former Liverpool defender Glenn Johnson warns Gerrard of succeeding Klopp
Former Liverpool defender Glenn Johnson admitted that it might be difficult for the Reds legend Steven Gerrard to succeed the German Jurgen Klopp in the team's training in 2024, as Gerrard is presenting good levels with the Rangers of Scotland at the moment and some have nominated him to succeed the German in the Reds training after his contract expired in 2024, which is The same time Klopp's contract with the Reds will expire.
And after Klopp raised the Champions League and the English Premier League title during his time with the club, expectations are much higher in "Merseyside" than they were before the arrival of the German.
As a result, Johnson warned former teammate Gerrard that it might be difficult to fill the void Klopp left behind.
When asked whether Gerrard would be fit to take on the job of the Reds if offered in 2024, Johnson said in statements published in the "Liverpool Echo" newspaper: "Yes, of course, he is the king of Liverpool. He loves the city at home and abroad. He will have a great desire for that."
He added, "It is one of those difficult roles because of the wonderful performance of Liverpool these days with Klopp. Who will want to enter Klopp's place when he leaves?"
He continued: "It is difficult, you cannot lead the team like him, it is all about timing though, we have no idea what will happen in four years, but when the door opens if Gerrard thinks it is the right time, I am sure that he will take the job."
