Arne Slot
Head coach
Arne Slot took up the position of Liverpool FC head coach on June 1, 2024, having agreed a deal with the club after the end of 2023-24.
The Dutchman joined the Reds from Eredivisie side Feyenoord ahead of the new season, replacing Jürgen Klopp at the helm following his decision to step down following nine years in charge.
Slot arrived at Anfield after three highly successful campaigns with Feyenoord, during which he led them to the league title in 2023 and was named Eredivisie Manager of the Year on two occasions.
He also helped the Rotterdam club to victory in the KNVB Cup in April 2024 after they defeated NEC Nijmegen 1-0 in the final.
Prior to moving to Feyenoord, Slot held the position of AZ Alkmaar head coach, and he had led them to second place in the table, trailing leaders Ajax only on goal difference, when the Dutch season was cancelled due to COVID-19 in 2019-20.
During his playing career, he operated primarily as a midfielder, turning out for FC Zwolle, NAC Breda, Sparta Rotterdam and PEC Zwolle before hanging up his boots in 2013.
Slot is the first head coach of Liverpool FC from the Netherlands.
