According to <a href="https://theathletic.com/5446341/2024/04/26/arne-slot-liverpool-manager/" target="_blank">The Athletic</a>, Liverpool and Feyenoord have agreed a deal for the 45-year-old to succeed Klopp at Anfield this summer. The Reds made an initial approach for Slot on Wednesday, which was swiftly knocked back by the Dutch club due to the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/liverpool-bill-arne-slot-feyenoord/blt216400018be42b7a" target="_blank">compensation package</a> that was offered. This issue has since been resolved and the former midfielder is now free to move to the Premier League.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Liverpool's interest in Slot was only revealed earlier in the week - after Feyenoord had secured the Dutch cup against Nijmegen last weekend. Brighton and Hove Albion boss Roberto De Zerbi and Sporting CP's Ruben Amorim had previously been considered frontrunners for the role - but it is Slot who Liverpool CEO Michael Edwards and sporting director Richard Hughes ultimately opted for.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Speaking on the possibility of Slot taking over from him this summer, Klopp said: "What I like a lot about it is if he is the one then he wants to take the job – he’s desperate, excited, let’s go for it.“I like the way his team play football and all the things I hear about him as a guy. Some people I know, know him, I don’t know him yet. Good coach, good guy.“If he’s the solution for the club then I am more than happy. It’s not up to me to judge but it all sounds really good to me.”

WHAT KLOPP SAID

The Reds have slipped to third place in the Premier League title race, three points off Arsenal at the top of the table. Despite the campaign fizzling out, Klopp will see out his remaining games in charge of the club and will be honoured in a fitting manner come the end of the season. The club will then enter a new era under Slot this summer.
