Arne To Slot In At Liverpool

Slot will take charge of his final Feyenoord match on Sunday against Excelsior.

The 45-year-old will replace Jurgen Klopp at Anfield after Liverpool agreed a compensation package with Feyenoord.

Slot has been in charge of Feyenoord since the summer of 2021 and has won one Eredivisie title and one Dutch Cup.

Feyenoord confirmed the Slot's departure on social media, saying: "The Arne Slot era is coming to an end. Let's enjoy the last moments."

"I can confirm that I will become the trainer there next year," Slot said on Friday.

"Until now I was not thinking about this being the build-up to my last match, but that starts coming now. At the beginning of the week you are thinking about training and those kind of things.

"But the feeling gets stronger now. That is why I'm a little bit late now [for the news conference], because I wanted to say goodbye to some people personally and take time for them, more than just shaking hands.

"I understand that good results help, but it is very nice to feel that people really are thinking it's a pity that I'm leaving."
