Liverpool sack Arne Slot one year after winning Premier League title
- On Saturday, Liverpool announced the dismissal of head coach Arne Slot with immediate effect, officially initiating the search for a successor following a disappointing season.
- Slot, who replaced Jurgen Klopp in 2024, delivered Liverpool's 20th league title in his debut year; however, the team lost 19 times this season and finished 25 points behind champions Arsenal.
- Fenway Sports Group officials cited a need for an "aggressive, front-foot" style, echoing Mohamed Salah's call for "heavy metal football" from the Klopp era, though sources insist the decision was made with "enormous reluctance."
- Former Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola has emerged as the clear favorite to replace Slot, linked to the role through his professional connection with Liverpool sporting director Richard Hughes.
- Iraola is in advanced talks with Bayer Leverkusen and faces interest from Crystal Palace with a weekend deadline, yet Liverpool offers him Champions League football next season despite their fifth-place finish.
