Arne Slott is closing in on becoming Liverpool's next manager, with reports suggesting the Premier League club have agreed to pay Feyenoord Rotterdam around $11.7 million in compensation. British and Dutch media reported that a verbal agreement had been reached between the two clubs regarding this financial agreement. If this deal is completed, Slot (45 years old) could take over as successor to German coach Jurgen Klopp at the end of the current season, according to the Associated Press.
While British media estimated the compensation at about 11 million euros, the Dutch newspaper "De Telegraaf" suggested that the number may exceed 14 million dollars. It is worth noting that Slott still has two years left on his contract with Feyenoord Rotterdam.
Klopp's departure from Liverpool marks the end of a promising period that lasted more than eight years, during which he won many titles, including the English Premier League and the Champions League.
So far, neither club has officially commented on the deal. However, once a compensation package has been agreed, Liverpool can move forward with contract negotiations with Slott.
Yesterday, Klopp expressed his feelings about his role at Anfield. By describing it as He also expressed admiration for Slott's football style but clarified that he was not directly involved in the search for his successor.
Klopp commented: “If slot machines are the solution I am very happy I have no right to judge these matters. But everything looks very promising to me.”
During his time at Feyenoord Slott won the Eredivisie title last season and led the team to this year's Dutch Cup.
