Liverpool Appoint Arne Slot as New Manager for 2024/2025 Season

 

Liverpool have officially announced that Arne Slot will be their manager starting from the 2024/2025 season. The Dutchman will take over from Jurgen Klopp, who managed his final game on Sunday. Slot will begin his duties on June 1.

Slot became Liverpool’s top choice after the club missed out on Xabi Alonso and Ruben Amorim. In April, Slot revealed that Feyenoord and Liverpool were negotiating a compensation package. Liverpool is believed to have paid around £9.4 million (£7.7 million plus £1.7 million in add-ons) for the 45-year-old manager.

“Liverpool Football Club can announce Arne Slot has agreed to a deal to become the club’s new head coach, formally taking up the position on June 1, 2024, subject to a work permit.

“The 45-year-old will join the Reds from Feyenoord ahead of the 2024-25 season after a deal was reached with the Eredivisie club for his services,” Liverpool said in a statement on Monday.

  Arsenal's defensive stalwart Gabriel Magalhaes faced a concerning moment during the match against Chelsea, raising fears of a new injury setback just ahead of the crucial North London Derby, according to Football.London. The Brazilian center-back, who had been instrumental in Arsenal's recent form, signaled distress to the bench, mouthing the words 'my ankle' after a robust challenge near the corner flag. With only 15 minutes remaining, it seemed Gabriel might have to be substituted, with Jakub Kiwior ready to step in.

Arsenal's hopes for the upcoming clash with Tottenham hinge significantly on Gabriel's fitness, as his presence has been pivotal in their defensive solidity.

The decision came as Arsenal already enjo...

 Kane, Tottenham's record goalscorer, received a predictably hostile reception from Arsenal's supporters, who saw the Gunners make the perfect start when Bukayo Saka's low finish put them ahead after only 12 minutes. Bayern belied their poor form in the Bundesliga to turn the game around before the break as former Arsenal forward Serge Gnabry swept home the equaliser six minutes later. Kane's moment arrived when William Saliba tripped Leroy Sane at the end of a blistering run after 32 minutes. The England captain stepped forward for the resulting penalty and silenced the taunts with his 15th goal in 20 appearances against Arsenal. Mikel Arteta's side were not at their fluent best but substitute Leandro Trossard was the beneficiary of outstanding work by Gabriel Jesus to equalise. Arsenal felt they should have had a penalty in the final seconds of stoppage time but the referee waved away their appeals when Saka went down as he was challenged by keeper Manuel Neuer. T...
