Liverpool and the new managerial target schedule another meeting
Share
Even if Liverpool isn’t in a hurry right now, they obviously need to act fast if they want to have Jurgen Klopp’s replacement at Anfield in a timely manner.
When his contract expires on June 30, the German coach, who has brought a new era to the team, will step down and is anticipated to take a well-earned break from coaching.
Any next manager will have the challenge of developing the team that Klopp assembled in addition to continuing Liverpool’s reputation for playing free-flowing football.
Since it won’t be an easy process, Michael Edwards and the board need to make sure the appointment is perfect.
A new meeting has been scheduled for the managerial target at Liverpool.
Ruben Amorin of Sporting was formerly thought to be the player that might lead the team to success, but it appears that the 39-year-old Portuguese isn’t the front-runner right now.
In an interview with CaughtOffside for his exclusive Daily Briefing, Fabrizio Romano claims that the Reds have set up a follow-up meeting with Arne Slot of Feyenoord.
With the Eredivisie giants, the 45-year-old has performed admirably, dropping just four games over nearly two seasons.
Slot is thought to be open to the change, but he’ll need thick skin to withstand the initial blow if things don’t work out as planned.
Naturally, that is only assuming things go that far.
Amorim is still a candidate and stays in the background, but it’s possible that other candidates will surface before the club decides who they want to lead the team going ahead.
In light of the approaching transfer window, it is advantageous for all parties involved if a quick resolution can be reached.
In this manner, a degree of continuity may be established as opposed to a managerial panic purchase that might upset the apple cart at Anfield.

Transfers from Liverpool: 32-year-old getting ready to quit Reds while awaiting a medical
An eight-year team veteran is expected to leave Liverpool during the summer transfer window. His only separation from an exit is a medical.
Joel Matip has been offered to Fenerbahce by his agents, according to Turkish publication Sabah. The defender’s contract expires at the end of the current campaign, and this rumour claims Liverpool will not extend it.
Fenerbahce is interested in signing him, which creates an opening. But before any settlement is made, there’s a clear standoff.
Matip is not likely to play again this season after suffering an ACL tear months ago. He should be back to normal by June, but nobody can promise that until they have a medical report.
Fenerbahce will therefore have to wait for the findings of a report before making a formal bid for Matip. Everything else depends on his fitness, even if it is commonly anticipated that he will depart Liverpool at the end of his contract.
Joel Matip is headed out of Liverpool.
Matip is leaving with a heavy heart, and it’s completely unwarranted. Given his advanced age and the uncertainty surrounding his long-term fitness, we do believe he will depart, but things really shouldn’t be this way.
Being one of Jurgen Klopp’s first signings and coming on a free transfer, Matip has been an amazing helper. Fewer signings have been better, and perhaps none better financially.
However, the manager’s change solidifies the departure. We’re not sure if Matip needs to sign a new contract on such harsh terms, but we wonder what would happen if he did.
If Matip can demonstrate his fitness, many teams will be willing to take a chance on him because of his excellent calibre throughout the previous eight seasons. He should be able to make a wise move, and hopefully he will
