Liverpool on a Hot Plate: Slot Close to Dismissal and Three Candidates to Succeed Him
Thursday 27-11-2025
Liverpool is witnessing a difficult and unexpected start to the season after a series of disappointing results, completely different from the previous season when Dutch coach Arne Slot led them to win the English Premier League in his first season. According to the website "Fichajes," the team's current performance places Slot on the verge of dismissal.

Despite massive investments exceeding 400 million euros in prominent reinforcements such as Alexander Isak, Hugo Ekitike, Florian Wirtz, Jeremy Frimpong, and Kirk, the team has suffered six defeats in twelve league matches, in addition to a painful loss against Eindhoven in the Champions League, which has increased the pressure on the Dutch coach.

Liverpool's management indicates that the project has lost its psychological and tactical balance and that Slot has been unable to convert the large investments into tangible results. A clear gap has been observed between the coach and the players, prompting the management to look for potential alternatives to strengthen the team's stability this season.

Three names top the list of candidates to take over leadership if Slot departs:

Jürgen Klopp: The club legend who led them to win the English Premier League and the Champions League, considered the safest option to restore the team's identity, despite the challenges of his return after two seasons away from Anfield.

Andoni Iraola: The Spanish coach who has proven his ability to develop teams with limited resources and improve tactical performance, viewed as a long-term option to reorganize the team.

Ange Postecoglou: The coach known for his bold attacking style, who could revive the team if stability is provided, despite some inconsistent results in his previous experience with Tottenham and Nottingham Forest.

The report confirms that making a decision regarding Slot's replacement has become an urgent necessity, as continuing with the current coach may threaten Liverpool's participation in European competitions and affect the value of the massive investments in the team. The choice between Klopp, Iraola, or Postecoglou will largely determine the club's future in the coming years.
