Slot Turns Down Chance to Become Netherlands Boss

Slot said he wants to stay in club football after reports linked him to the Netherlands job and three other clubs.

  • On Friday, Arne Slot ruled himself out as the next manager of the Netherlands national team, confirming he prefers to continue working in club football.
  • The KNVB is seeking a replacement for Ronald Koeman, who resigned following the Netherlands' disappointing round of 32 exit at the World Cup in late June.
  • Reports indicate the 47-year-old Slot also turned down offers from AC Milan, Fulham, and Al-Ahli since his departure from Liverpool at the end of May.
  • Other potential successors are also unavailable, as PSV Eindhoven manager Peter Bosz extended his contract and Erik ten Hag remains technical director at Twente Enschede.
  • The KNVB expects to provide an update next week on their search for a new manager before the UEFA Nations League match against Germany on September 24.
