Feyenoord coach Arne Slot has confirmed he will replace Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool manager next season.
Klopp has been in charge of the Reds since October 2015 but is leaving at the end of the season after a reign that has seen him win the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and two EFL Cups.
After Klopp’s announcement in January several managers were considered leading contenders, but in April BBC Sport learned that Slot was set to get the job after a compensation deal worth up to £9.4m was agreed with Feyenoord.
“I can confirm that I will become the trainer there next year,” Slot said on Friday.
