In the early morning of May 18, Beijing time, Feyenoord coach Slot confirmed at the press conference attending the final round of the Eredivisie that he will become the coach of Liverpool next season; It also means that he will have his final game in charge of Feyenoord.
Back in January this year, Klopp suddenly announced that he would leave Anfield at the end of the season, ending a nine-year relationship with Liverpool. At that time, Liverpool was in the title race stage of the four-line battle, and fans hoped that the Reds could win more trophies to bid farewell to Klopp, but unfortunately as the season deepened, Liverpool went out of the FA Cup and Europa League successively, and the Premier League title fell out early, and finally won only one League Cup.
After Uncle Scumbag announced his farewell, Liverpool's top management also immediately opened the selection of coaches, and after missing Alonso and Ammorim in a row, Liverpool finally finalized Feyenoord coach Slott as the team's new manager. According to Fabrizio Romano, Slote has officially signed his contract as Liverpool's new manager today, with all the paperwork in place. According to previous news, in order to hire Slot, Liverpool will pay 9 million euros + 2 million euros, plus the cost of the entire coaching team is more than 13 million euros, with a payment period of one year.
The 45-year-old, who has managed Cambuur and Almark, became Feyenoord in 2021 and led the team to the UEFA Cup final in his debut season, but lost to Jose Mourinho's Roma. Last season, Slote led Feyenoord to the Eredivisie title, ending a six-year league title drought. Although he failed to defend his title this season, he still led the team to the Dutch Cup, finishing second in the league with only one round of the league remaining, and qualifying for next season's Champions League ahead of schedule.
For being able to coach Liverpool, Slot is obviously very excited and looking forward to it, as early as when the scandal broke, he was hinting at being able to succeed Klopp, and even said in an interview that he would learn from Uncle Scum. Because there is no experience in coaching giants, and the last 2 coaches are limited to the Eredivisie, for this reason, there are many voices in the outside world that it is difficult for Slot to carry the banner, the last one to coach from the Eredivisie to the Premier League is Ten Hag, the past 2 years Ten Hag's achievements in Manchester United are "obvious to all", Slote can prove that he is still not as good as "Teng Hi" back, you need to see how he is next season.
