Fulham midfielder Joao Palhinha can see Ruben Amorim moving to Liverpool.

Palhinha played for Amorim at Sporting CP.

He told the Daily Mail: "If he signs for Liverpool, I have no doubt that people will like his personality. I believe he is a great option to replace Jurgen Klopp, but we don't know if that will happen.

"Either way, he will take a leap in his career at any time. You cannot compare Sporting with a world-class club like Liverpool, but there is also great pressure on a coach fighting for titles in Portugal.

"He is used to dealing with that."

How Amorim likes to play, Palhinha added: "He plays with three defenders. He likes to have possession. At Braga he didn't change that, not even when we lost. He always kept the same idea of the game. If he had to compare his teams with someone... maybe with Bayer Leverkusen this season. Because of the way they want to have and keep the ball."
