Speaking to Trans Europe Express, Hatchard said: “I think Xabi Alonso was going to be one of several and could well have been the frontrunner.
“They were interested in him, but Julian Nagelsmann It's a name I thought was appropriate when Jurgen Klopp first announced he was leaving.
“They asked me about Nagelsmann against Xabi Alonso, and at that moment I felt, to a certain extent I still do, that if we talk about history, if we take into account what they have done as coaches, Nagelsmann is there.
“He is the man who has been a coach since he was 28 at the highest level, and before that he was a very good youth coach.

“And he is also someone who took RB Leipzig to the semi-finals of the Champions League and won trophies at Bayern Munich.
“He knows how to deal with high-pressure environments and I think he learned from what was a very painful situation at Bayern.
“I felt that he had been abandoned too easily and very unfairly, although he knows the political game.

“I can understand why Amorim is linked to the position, because he plays very aggressive football and a football that is based on good work without the ball.
“They press high, so there are some parallels, but no one is going to be a direct replacement for (Jurgen) Klopp.
“Whether in terms of charisma of the man, but also style, it's a very difficult style to copy and replicate, and I don't think the new coach should try to do that.
“Amorim has done very well with Sporting, winning the title and fighting to get it again, and he also hit Arsenal outside Europe last season.
“He also took Sporting to the last 16 of the Champions League previously, so he is a guy who has a good CV and, understandably, is someone who excites people.”
