Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp FAVOURITE with bookies to be the next Premier League boss to go after he was blindsided by Super League announcement before being left to face the cameras as owners stay quiet

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is the new favourite to be the next Premier League manager to go after his side's involvement as Super League founder.

Klopp has long opposed the idea of Super League when the project was mooted in years gone by and underlined that stance when he faced the cameras on Monday night for Liverpool's game against Leeds.

He has been priced at 7/4 to go next at BetVictor, placing him ahead of Newcastle boss Steve Bruce.

Klopp looked visibly uncomfortable with balancing his own well-known views on the prospect of a Super League with the move by Liverpool's owners to bring the competition to life.
