Liverpool's next head coach, Arne Slot, does not see himself as a strict disciplinarian, it has been claimed.

The Feyenoord chief, 45, emerged as the Reds' top target to succeed Jurgen Klopp earlier this month and his appointment is expected to be confirmed this week after both clubs reached an agreement over compensation for his services.

One of Klopp's final games at the helm was overshadowed at the weekend by a touchline bust-up with Mohamed Salah after the Liverpool forward was dropped for the must-win match at West Ham.



It was also the catalyst for last year's Dutch title triumph - Feyenoord's first domestic title in six years.

While official confirmation of Slot's next move is expected imminently, Klopp still has a handful of games left before he bids Anfield an emotional farewell next month.

While he was quick to downplay Saturday's row with Salah, insisting that the issue was quashed post-match in the dressing room, others have criticised the Egypt international.

Mohamed Salah clashed with Jurgen Klopp on the touchline during Liverpool's match against West Ham!

Anfield favourite Jamie Carragher had his say on the incident on social media, admitting Salah had been "daft" but that nobody of a Liverpool persuasion needed to take sides.

He wrote: "Mo Salah & Jurgen Klopp are both @LFC legends!

Salah is frustrated & angry with Jurgen that he's not playing & at that moment didn't want to fully embrace the boss, Jurgen understandably took exception.

"Mo was daft with his comment in the mixed zone but let's let them sort it out & enjoy the last few weeks together.
