Liverpool sack manager

News Update

Liverpool sacked manager Arne Slot on Saturday, saying the club were seeking a “change of direction”, after a disastrous defence of their Premier League title.

The Reds finished fifth in the table, 25 points behind champions Arsenal, despite spending a Premier League record of nearly £450 million ($605 million) on new players in one transfer window last year.

Outgoing Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola is the frontrunner after leading the Cherries into Europe for the first time in the club’s history.

Just over a year ago Slot was heralded as a hero after taking on the daunting role of succeeding Jurgen Klopp and leading Liverpool to a record-equalling 20th English top-flight title in his debut season in charge.

Yet fans turned on the Dutchman this season after a series of lacklustre performances.

There was also sign of dressing room disharmony, most notably from Mohamed Salah who called for a return to “heavy metal football” in an explosive social media post, referring to Klopp’s high energy style of play.

Salah’s comments were liked by multiple members of the current squad.

Despite their troubles, it had been reported that Slot would be handed a stay of execution after securing Champions League qualification.
