Slot’s successor previously led Midtjylland and Sparta Prague to the championship
Feyenoord officially announced that the Dane will become the new head coach of the team from July 1 Brian Priske. He will replace in this post Arne Slotawho previously left for Liverpool.
The Dutch giants agreed on a transfer with Sparta Prague, where the specialist worked for the last two years. The contract with the 47-year-old mentor was signed for three years – until the summer of 2027.
Priske was a fairly well-known defender (Aalborg, Genk, Portsmouth, Bruges and other clubs, 27 matches for the Danish national team), and his first independent coaching experience turned into a triumph for Briand – he made Midtjylland the champion of Denmark 2019/20.
In 2022, the Dane took over Sparta and immediately won the first championship title in nine years. In the 2023/24 season, Priske consolidated his success by scoring a golden double with the Prague team.
Last season, Feyenoord, under the leadership of Slot, became the vice-champion of the Netherlands, losing seven points to PSV.
