In an emotional farewell, Jurgen Klopp surprised everyone by chanting Arne Slot’s name during his final address at Anfield, announcing the Feyenoord manager as his successor. Klopp’s heartfelt gesture has already endeared Slot to Liverpool fans.
In his first interview with the club, Slot shared his surprise and delight at the reception. “I received numerous messages about Klopp singing my name,” he said. “It’s incredible, and I hope the fans will sing more for the players in the coming season. Sometimes, people even sing the song outside my house in Zwolle.”
While Slot feels welcomed, he knows the expectations are high. Liverpool fans demand success, and patience is limited in today’s game. Slot is already working on pre-season plans and will soon lead the team on their U.S. tour, where fans will get their first look at his approach.
As he prepares for the Premier League campaign, Slot aims to make an immediate impact and build on the strong foundation left by Klopp. The upcoming season promises to be an exciting new chapter for Liverpool under Slot’s guidance.
