Liverpool has finalized the future of Arne Slot for the next season after a disappointing campaign, despite spending over €500 million on reinforcements.
On 18 Apr 2026 GMT+7, Liverpool, a prominent Premier League club, confirmed the future of Dutch coach Arne Slot for the upcoming season following a disappointing performance this year, despite investing more than €500 million, approximately 18.92 billion baht, on player acquisitions.
Arne Slot's position has been under pressure due to poor results, especially in the last 8 matches where the team suffered 5 defeats, drew 1, and won only 2. These results caused Liverpool to be eliminated in the quarterfinals of both the UEFA Champions League and the FA Cup. Consequently, the club has been linked with several top managers, including Xabi Alonso.
Recently, renowned journalist David Ornstein confirmed that the club’s board still has confidence in Arne Slot and expects him to remain as manager next season. He added that rumors about interest in the currently unemployed Xabi Alonso are not being considered by the club’s ownership group, FSG. This may disappoint some fans seeking change. Ornstein concluded by acknowledging that if his prediction proves wrong, he would accept criticism, but based on current information, the club intends to continue with Slot.
