Manuel Pellegrini is in negotiations to direct the ailing Liverpool, announced today the representative of the strategist, Jesus Martinez.

We had some contacts, but as the club is in the process of change, and no one knows who is boss, no progress on the topic," Martinez revealed.

The choice of the former coach of Real Madrid, came about because of the poor performance of the England team, now led by Roy Hodgson.
Martinez added that the possibility of commanding technically Liverpool Chilean appeals more to other offers from the last time, junior teams and tradition.

"Pellegrini has had offers from clubs in Italy, but initially wanted to wait a bit to some better option," said the representative.

"And Liverpool is a club that Manuel would like to address," he said.

world class manager

Frank Rijkaard has set his sights on managing in the Premier League after leaving Galatasaray, with Sky Bet slashing the odds on the Dutchman becoming the new boss at Anfield.

The former Barcelona coach is on the lookout for a new job after an unhappy 16-month spell in Turkey with Galatasaray came to an end earlier this week.

Rijkaard's sudden availability will alert a number of clubs across Europe, but the Dutchman's advisers have told skysports.com the former AC Milan star will snub other offers to come to England.

The news of Rijkaard's desire to manage in the Premier League has already fuelled speculation that he could be a contender for the Liverpool job, should Roy Hodgson lose his role at Anfield.

Pressure is mounting on Hodgson after the Reds' poor start to the campaign, which was compounded by a 2-0 to Everton in the Merseyside derby last weekend.

Rijkaard was in the frame for the Liverpool post prior to Hodgson's appointment and he could come under consideration again should the club's new owners lose faith in the former Fulham boss.

The ex-Inter Milan and Fulham boss is 11/10 to be the next Premier League manager to be sacked and Sky Bet's Dale Tempest reckons that Hodgson's dismal start at Anfield has paved the way for Rijkaard to replace him.

Tempest said: "Liverpool are a club in crisis so it's been no surprise to see the odds gradually shorten for Roy Hodgson to leave.

"However what we didn't expect was the gamble on Frank Rijkaard to take over.

"The Dutchman started at 12/1 on Wednesday but is now the 4/7 favourite."

Former Holland international Rijkaard is regarded as one of the best coaches in Europe following his success at Barcelona, where he won two Spanish titles and the UEFA Champions League during his tenure at Camp Nou.

The 48-year-old helped transform Barca's fortunes with his attacking brand of football and he won many plaudits during his time in Spain.
