Arne Slot has confirmed he will take over from Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool’s manager next season.
The Feyenoord coach has been widely reported as Klopp’s successor after Liverpool gave up on the pursuit of their first-choice coach, Bayer Leverkusen’s Xabi Alonso.
Liverpool are expected to officially announce Slot’s appointment after Klopp’s final match, when Wolves visit Anfield on Sunday.
“I can confirm that I will become the trainer there next season,” Slot said on Friday, when asked about the prospect of taking over at Liverpool.
