Liverpool Looking At Olympique De Marseille Boss Didier Deschamps As Replacement For Roy Hodgson

The Reds switched managers after parting ways with Rafael Benitez last summer but the Merseysiders began the campaign in ignominious fashion, plunging into the relegation zone at one point, and endured something of a stop-start season up to now.

New England Sports Ventures - the owners of Liverpool - will reportedly allow Hodgson to remain in charge until the end of the season, when they would start searching for a new boss.

Now the News of the World claims that Deschamps is the top candidate to take the reins from the Anfield boss.

The Marseille manager is believed to have been previously interviewed as a replacement for Benitez, but was cast aside as Hodgson was favoured due to his prior experience in managing a Premier League club.
