Liverpool have tonight reached an agreement with Feyenoord for the services of their manager Arne Slot, who will replace the departing Jurgen Klopp
The Reds have been on the managerial lookout for a number of months having been informed by Klopp as far back as November that he would be stepping down from his post at the end of this season after nearly nine years in charge.
Analysis conducted by Edwards and the club's director of research, Will Spearman, have found Slot's aggressive playing style to closest resemble the Reds' under Klopp, meaning there won't be too much upheaval for a playing staff operating under a new manager for the first time in close to a decade later this year.
Instead, it is Slot who is set to be appointed as the man to succeed the hugely popular Klopp after the Reds were able to reach an agreement following an intense few days at the negotiating table. "And somewhere I still have the idea that I have performed so well in recent years, earning so much that Feyenoord is thinking along those lines.
The former AZ Alkmaar boss may also be keen to bring in his own backroom staff with him with assistants Pep Lijnders, Peter Krawietz and elite-development coach Vitor Matos all set to move on with Klopp.
