Former Premier League champions Liverpool have sacked Arne Slot after a difficult title defence, which saw them finish fifth and only just qualify for the Champions League.

The former Feyenoord and AZ Alkmaar coach did win the League title in his first season with the Merseyside club, but sadly for everyone involved with Liverpool, they finished a distant 23 points behind Arsenal.

In what was a desperate campaign, The Reds suffered a shocking 12 League losses. This was all despite a massive £400 million + outlay on transfers. Since we first broke this news story, it has developed.

At the time of writing, Liverpool are in talks with former Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola to be their new manager. Reports are suggesting it’s the former Athletic Bilbao defender’s style of play that’s attracted the Liverpool hierarchy.

The higher-ups at Anfield believe it resembles Klopp’s style of play.
