Experienced manager gives positive response to links with the Liverpool job

Experienced Italian manager Gian Piero Gasperini has given a positive response to being linked as a potential candidate to replace Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool, even if he’s played down the speculation for now.

Gasperini has worked wonders at current club Atalanta, who have a 3-0 lead over Liverpool from their surprise Europa League quarter-final first leg victory last week, and it seems he’s keen to just focus on the next game, despite being asked about the prospect of taking over at Anfield in the summer.
