Liverpool fans will be buzzing as club legend lined up to make emotional return

There is an over arching feeling the next few weeks could be make or break for Liverpool’s season. 

A magnificent 2-0 victory away to RB Leipzig in the Champions League at first appeared to be the spark needed to rejuvenate a faltering season for the defending champions.

Unfortunately, whatever buzz and energy generated from their performance at The Red Bull Arena fizzled out after a frustrating 2-0 home defeat to Merseyside rivals Everton.

If things do not go to plan, then Liverpool’s season could be all but over.

However, according to the Sunday Mirror, Liverpool’s hierarchy are putting in contingency plans in the event manager Jurgen Klopp departs the Merseyside club at the end of the season.

It is understood the former Borussia Dortmund and Mainz manager could be earmarked as the next Germany boss if Die Mannschaft fall flat at this summer’s rearranged European Championship,
