The official announcement of the Reds’ appointment of a new coach could take place as early as this week.
Liverpool And Feyenoord have already signed all the necessary documents regarding the transfer of the head coach Arne Slota to a Premier League club at the end of the season.
According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, the official announcement of this deal is planned by the Liverpudlians this week, but it may be delayed.
Let us remind you that earlier it became known that the clubs agreed on compensation for the mentor. Liverpool will pay Feyenoord 13-15 million euros for Slot’s transfer. Thus, the coach will become the most expensive Dutch coach in history.
As you know, current Reds head coach Jurgen Klopp will leave the team in the summer. Previously, Xabi Alonso dropped out of the list of potential replacements for Klopp. The list of candidates to replace the German included the names of former Shakhtar coach (now Lille coach) Paulo Fonseca and Ruben Amorim from Sporting.
Liverpool is third in the Premier League with 75 points. Until recently, the Reds were first, but in five matches they scored only five points and actually dropped out of the championship race. In the next round, Klopp’s team will host Tottenham on May 5th.
