Arne Slot, the current manager of Feyenoord, has openly expressed his desire to become the next head coach of Liverpool, aiming to replace Jurgen Klopp for the upcoming season. He believes that an agreement will be reached between the Reds and Feyenoord, positioning himself as the frontrunner for the position after other potential candidates were ruled out of the race. With Feyenoord’s recent success in the Dutch Cup and their position in the Eredivisie, there is growing speculation about Slot’s potential move to Liverpool.
Michael Edwards and Richard Hughes, returning Liverpool chief and new sporting director, respectively, are reportedly in favor of Slot’s profile and coaching style, identifying him as the ideal successor to Klopp, who will be leaving his role at the end of the season. Slot is determined to leave Feyenoord after four successful years at the helm, including winning their first league title since 2017, to embark on leading a new era at Anfield with Liverpool. In response to rumors about his potential move to Liverpool, Slot acknowledged the speculation and emphasized his current focus on the upcoming match with Feyenoord.
He has also received backing from Liverpool’s captain Virgil van Dijk, who praised Slot’s coaching abilities and acknowledged the possibility of him becoming a Liverpool coach. Overall, there is significant interest and support for Arne Slot’s potential transition to Liverpool, with developments expected in the near future.
