Liverpool may not have been playing, but Thursday was still a very busy day for the club, with Arne Slot emerging as the likely next manager.

The Feyenoord manager plays a similar style of football to Klopp and has clearly impressed the people who matter: Michael Edwards and Richard Hughes.



Slot confirms he wants the job

Slot was busy managing Feyenoord against Go Ahead Eagles in the Eredivisie on Thursday night, but he was distracted.

"I’d like to become the new Liverpool manager, my decision is clear,” he said.

I am confident, waiting for the clubs to reach an agreement."

Slot has two years left on his Feyenoord deal and it is understood it will cost around £8.6million in compensation for Liverpool to hire him this summer.

Slot sent blunt warning

He is not even through the door yet and Slot has already been warned that an exodus is coming at Liverpool as Klopp prepares to leave Anfield.
