Didnt he sign a new contract a few months back? And stated he wouldnt be leaving for a while.
I dont think Rodgers will get the sack neither do I think City will go for him.
Can see City going for Ancelotti fwiw.
IF Rodgers does go, De Boer is a good shout.
Other than that I really like Rudi Garcia. Clear philosophy and has together with Walter Sabatini built something really good at Roma.
Sabatini has a great track record and could be a very good match. Maybe going for Garcia and Sabatini could be the way forward if Rodgers does leave.
Director of football at Roma
In the summer of 2011, Walter Sabatini was hired by James Pallotta to replace Daniele Prade as Sporting Director.. Over the course of 3 years, he rebuilt Roma, and has nearly removed all the below-average players with high wages from the Sensi era. He has also succeeding in signing
Erik Lamela and
Marquinhos, and sold them for massive profit in 2013. He then used the money to buy
Kevin Strootman,
Gervinho,
Morgan De Sanctis,
Radja Nainggolan and
Mehdi Benatia. A year later, all 5 signings played brilliant seasons, though the latter was unceremoniously sold for double the amount he was bought for.
With those extra funds, he managed to buy 3 additional centerbacks, and was able to snatch
Juventus's main target for the window,
Juan Iturbe. He was awarded the best director of football award for the 2013–14 season. He is normally known for signing short term deals, but for the first time he agreed upon a three-year extension in 2014.
