Romano confirms that Liverpool has scheduled the official unveiling of their new manager and reveals the names of four coaching staff members.
On 3 June 2026 GMT+7, renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano reported the latest news regarding the appointment of Andoni Iraola as Liverpool's new manager, following the Premier League club's decision to dismiss Arne Slot from Anfield.
Romano stated, "Andoni Iraola has signed a contract as Liverpool's new coach until June 2028. The agreement with the Spanish manager is finalized, and the official announcement will take place within this week, replacing Arne Slot as disclosed last Saturday."
"Pablo de la Torre, Tommy Elphick, Sean Cooper, and Tom Webber are the behind-the-scenes staff that Andoni Iraola has requested."
"A new era at Anfield is about to begin."
Pablo de la Torre, Tommy Elphick, Sean Cooper, and Tom Webber are the four trusted staff members who supported Andoni Iraola in leading Bournemouth to an 18-match unbeaten record last season—the best in the league—culminating in a sixth-place Premier League finish and securing the club's first-ever qualification for European competition in the Europa League next season.
