Feyenoord boss Arne Slot would consider replacing Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool manager, according to journalist Martijn Krabbendam.
Rumours about the Dutchman being a potential contender have increased in recent days and, speaking about the chances of Slot moving to Anfield, Krabbendam said:
“They are coming, if bookmakers have already put you forward as the top candidate at Liverpool, then you can assume that it will take serious forms. The bookmakers are always well aware of such matters. You also notice it in Slot. His problem is that those clauses are removed from the contract. He extended last year and received additional money; in return, those clauses have been removed.”
“He was able to leave for a modest amount, and then he also spoke with Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea and clubs such as Crystal Palace, but he immediately cancelled. Also, a club from Spain, which he said no to.”
“In the Champions League, he left a good impression with his football. I wouldn’t rule it out. A club like Liverpool is also the only club he is leaving for. He doesn’t get out of bed for Brentford.”
The 45-year-old has impressed since taking on the Feyenoord job in the summer of 2021. He reached the Europa Conference League final in his first year in charge before beating Dutch heavyweights Ajax and PSV Eindhoven to the Eredivisie title last season.
Slot’s team currently sit second in the table this campaign, and last weekend his side lifted the Dutch Cup, beating NEC Nijmegen in the final.
