Who do Liverpool target after Alonso decision?

Описание: On the pitch Liverpool have seized the initiative in the Premier League title race following their 2-1 win over Brighton & Hove Albion on Sunday.

Yet off the pitch, uncertainty lingers after Xabi Alonso confirmed last week he'll be staying with Bayer Leverkusen, ruling himself out of the running to replace Jurgen Klopp at Anfield.
So where do Liverpool turn next and who will be on their managerial shortlist to replace Klopp?
