Andoni Iraola, the prospective Liverpool manager, arrived in the Beatles' city today to finalize his two-year contract with the club. He is set to replace Arne Slot, who was dismissed on Saturday. The Basque coach landed at John Lennon Airport on a flight from San Sebastian and was immediately transported by van to the Merseyside club's training ground.
Iraola had already reached a verbal agreement with Liverpool for the two-year term, a duration he personally insisted upon. He also stipulated bringing his entire backroom staff from Bournemouth to Anfield: Pablo de la Torre, Tommy Elphick, Shaun Cooper, and Tom Webber.
The 43-year-old specialist is expected to sign his contract this afternoon, after which Liverpool will officially unveil him as the team's new manager. He has already been actively collaborating with sporting director Richard Hughes, with whom he previously worked at Bournemouth, on the summer transfer strategy.
