Liverpool Football Club has reached an agreement with Feyenoord over the signing of Arne Slot as their new manager, according to Dutch media outlet 1908.nl.
The online news portal claims that “Feyenoord and Liverpool have reached an agreement.
“Arne Slot will become the new head coach of The Reds.
“The successful coach succeeds Jürgen Klopp, who will only take over after the current season.
“Slot will therefore go down as the most expensive Dutch trainer of all time.”
It marks a significant transition for the club moves forward after the era of Jurgen Klopp.
Slot, who has earned accolades for his impressive tenure at Feyenoord, is set to bring a fresh tactical approach to Anfield.
The 45-year-old has rapidly ascended in the football management world, establishing himself as a notable tactician with a philosophy rooted in attacking football.
His coaching career began modestly at clubs like PEC Zwolle and NAC Breda in his native Netherlands.
He gained significant recognition during his tenure as assistant coach at AZ Alkmaar.
In 2020, Slot took over as head coach of AZ, where his impact was immediate, enhancing the team’s performance and visibility in Dutch football.
After he was relieved of his duties at AZ, he was picked up by Feyenoord – and that’s when his profile really started to skyrocket.
He led Feyenoord to the inaugural 2021/22 UEFA Conference League final in his first season but lost out to Jose Mourinho’s Roma.
He built on that success the following campaign, leading Feyenoord to their first Eredivisie title in 2022/23 – the club’s first in six years.
Slot seems to be a knack of picking up silverware, as has side won the KNVB Cup (Dutch domestic cup) with a 1-0 win over NEC Nijmegen this season.
