Slot wants to talk to Klopp before taking Liverpool reins

Arne Slot moved to Feyenoord in 2021 after impressing in his first managerial role at AZ Alkmaar. He led the Dutch giants to the inaugural Europa Conference League final at the end of his first season, in which they narrowly lost 1-0 to Jose Mourinho's Roma.
Slot then delivered just a second league title in 24 years to De Kuip last season before penning a new three-year deal. The 45-year-old is now ready to start a new adventure in the Premier League with Liverpool.
"I think it’s normal that if you go to a new club that you contact the current coach. I did this at Feyenoord as well. It’s normal, all the knowledge a person has from working a few years at the club or nine in this case, that you contact him," Slot said when asked if he would like to speak to Klopp before arriving at Anfield.
"But apart from that I know his assistant quite well, Pep Lijnders. If there is an official confirmation, it would be strange if I did not call him," he added. Klopp will step down at the end of this season after a nine-year reign which brought the Champions League title in 2019 and Premier League trophy a year later.
