Arne Slot says he has confidence that Feyenoord and Liverpool will soon reach an agreement for him to become the next manager of the Reds.
Slot said it would be crazy not to jump on the chance to replace Jurgen Klopp next season.
In a press conference, Arne Slot said, “The clubs are negotiating. I am waiting to see what will come out of it.”
“It is no secret that I would like to go to Liverpool. Now I am waiting for the clubs to reach an agreement. I have every confidence in that.”
“I’m having a great time at Feyenoord, but if there’s a club like Liverpool, it would be crazy if you didn’t find that a great next step in your career. The clubs are in talks, and I’m waiting for that. That was me before the game, and I’m still here two hours later.”
The first offer was rejected, but Liverpool are expected to close a deal very soon. It is expected that a fee of £10 million will be enough to secure the attention of the Feyenoord manager.
Liverpool’s new sporting director, Richard Hughes, has a strong relationship with Feyenoord after he signed Marcos Senesi for his former club, Borussia Dortmund.
Due to the close tie between the two teams, the deal to bring Arne Slot to Anfield may be done before the completion of this weekend.
If he becomes the manager, he is likely to bring with him a lot of Feyenoord staff and his assistant, Sipke Hulshoff.
Despite speculations surrounding his future, the manager is well-dedicated to helping his team win another silverware at the end of the season after Feyenoord won the KNVB Cup on April 21, 2024.
Arne Slot Personal Life
The current manager of Feyenoord has failed to disclose information relating to his family and personal life.
Arne Slot Achievements
The manager won the 2022–23 Eredivisie title and the KNVB Cup with the Dutch giant Feyenoord.
Slot won the Rinus Michels Award for best manager in the Eredivisie for the 2021–22 and 2022–23 seasons.
Arne Slot Coaching Style
The manager adopts a high-intensity attacking style of football that pushes opponents to the backside of the pitch.
His team plays a high defensive line, and they push the ball forward quickly. Slot uses the 4-3-3 and the 4-3-2-1 formations, which are virtually similar to those of Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp.
Slot tactics allow full-backs to contribute immensely to the attack. If he becomes manager of Liverpool, his formation will be music to the ears of Trent Alexander Arnold, Andrew Robertson, and Conor Bradley.
He also prefers to use two defensive midfielders who will work closely with the two center backs.
He is a good fit for Liverpool because his tactics won’t stop the Reds from playing the beautiful football that they have always been accustomed to under Jurgen Klopp.
Arne Slot Net Worth
The Feyenoord manager has a net worth of £7 million. His current contract with Feyenoord is worth £2.5 million.
