Graeme Souness says that while he admires Roberto De Zerbi, he isn’t certain that the Brighton boss is ready for an ‘elite job’ like Liverpool or Manchester United.
De Zerbi is one of the most sought after managers in the world right now having greatly impressed since taking the reins at the Amex in September 2022.
He finished sixth last season, qualifying the club for Europe for the first time ever, with the Seagulls currently eighth in the Premier League.
His attacking tactics are well-liked, though his side have struggled for form of late, winning just six of their last 22 league games, while they are set to knocked out of the Europa League after losing the first-leg of their last 16 tie against Roma 4-0.
Nevertheless, De Zerbi’s exploits have attracted many admirers, not least Liverpool, Barcelona, United and Chelsea.
He has been closely linked with the former two clubs who are both on the hunt for a new manager after Jurgen Klopp and Xavi announced that they would be stepping down at the end of the season.
But Reds legend Souness isn’t 100 per cent sold on the idea of the Italian moving to Anfield, though he’s sure he will be a top contender to replace Klopp.
