Arne Slot has been sacked by Liverpool, less than two years after his appointment. The news was officially confirmed by the Merseyside club and came as a significant surprise. In his recent press conferences, the Dutchman had expressed confidence in remaining in his position for the upcoming season. It is now clear that this will not happen, and Andoni Iraola is the most likely candidate to succeed him.
Fabrizio Romano, who first broke the news of Slot's dismissal earlier today, also shared the Dutchman's initial comments following his departure:
“My journey with Liverpool has been incredible. I am so grateful that we managed to win the title last season,” read Slot's brief statement.
The Dutchman managed Liverpool in a total of 113 matches across all competitions. During his tenure, the team recorded 66 wins, 19 draws, and 28 losses. Twenty of those defeats occurred in his second season at Anfield.
