It is not official yet, but it will be fairly soon: Arne Slot will be the man to take over from Jürgen Klopp at Liverpool in the summer.

Klopp isn't the only one leaving, though, and therefore isn't the only one who will need to be replaced.

Pep Lijnders, Vitor Matos and other Liverpool coaches will also be departing with Klopp at the same time.



But the fact that they are leaving with Klopp means they will need to be succeeded as well.

Sipke Hulshoff is Slot's trusted assistant and he is someone who would be expected to join him at Anfield, alongside the likes of Etiënne Reijnen (another coach) and head of performance Ruben Peeters.

But there might be an issue.

According to Mikos Gouka of Algemeen Dagblad, Hulshoff faces a 'complicated decision'.

That is because as well as being involved with Feyenoord, he is also an assistant to Ronald Koeman with the Dutch national team.

Liverpool would supposedly like Hulshoff to arrive on day one with Slot, but his involvement in the summer's European Championship could make that more tricky.

If he went to Germany for the international tournament first, he would arrive back for pre-season after many of the players.

Virgil van Dijk, Cody Gakpo and Ryan Gravenberch already work with Hulshoff at national team level.
