Liverpool officially announced the dismissal of Arne Slott as the team's head coach. The press service of the “chervonyh” informed about this.
The club has announced that the Dutch coach is leaving his position immediately, and Kerivnitstvo has already started the process in search of a new coach. According to unofficial information, the leading candidate is Andoni Iraola.
The slot beat Liverpool in the first half of 2024 and, in its debut season, led the team to the championship in the English Premier League, giving the club its 20th title in the national championship.. Also under his leadership, the Merseysiders reached the finals of the English League Cup and the 1/8 finals of the Champions League.
In the 2025/26 season, Liverpool suddenly qualified for the Champions League, finished 5th in the Premier League, and reached the quarter-finals of the tournament. In a strong statement, the club’s leaders chimed in to the coach for his contribution to the team’s developments and reinforced that the decision about the change was even more complicated.
Liverpool loudly said that Slot will once again lose an important part of the club's history as a coach who turned the team's championship title. The statement also indicated his leadership qualities and behavior during a difficult period for the club after the loss of Diogu Zhoty.
At the same time, the work has come to a head, and for further development of the team a direct change is required. The club wished Arne Slott success in his further career and encouraged him to warmly welcome him to Enfield in the future..
