Will Arne Slot prove a worthy successor to Kloppo?

By Francisco Avila

Monday, was a day that will be in Liverpool fans’ memories forever.

English, Premier League side, Liverpool FC announced that Arne Slot has been named as the
new coach of the club after Jurgen Klopp’s eight-year-and-a-half stint with the club comes to an
end. Fans are sad about Klopp’s farewell, but the question is will Arne Slot prove a worthy
successor to Kloppo?

Kloppo’s success at Liverpool will be hard to surpass.

Jurgen Klopp also known as Kloppo, the German maestro has had undoubted success as the
Liverpool coach during his time at the club.

Klopp has won a UEFA Super Cup, Fifa Club World Cup, Champions League, FA Cup, EFL
Cup, FA Community Shield, and the revered and highly desired Premier League won after so
many years without Liverpool having won it.

Klopp has transformed the Liverpool side into an attractive, attacking team that always presses
and is deadly on the counter-attack. The question on fans’ minds with Slot taking the reins of the
team is if he will play the same style and produce the same results.

Arne Slot’s past success will prove to be a worthy replacement

Klopp will be a hard coach to follow, but Arne Slot isn’t just any other coach, he also has
successes that deserve recognition.

The innovative Dutch manager has had incredible success during his time coaching in the
Netherlands for both Zwolle and his most recent club, Feyenoord. Slot has achieved various
accolades including an Eredivisie title, KNVD Dutch Cup, and a UEFA Europa Conference
League runner-up while also being named a Rinus Michels Award on two occasions for being
the best coach of the league.

Similarly to Klopp, Slot also plays an attractive, attacking style of soccer which will allow for an
easy transition for the players in terms of play style and adjusting to the coach’s methods. Slot
really gets the best out of his players and helps develop them to achieve the best performances on
the field.

What’s Next for Liverpool and Kloppo?

Liverpool will miss Kloppo and his achievements, but will now look to start a new era with Arne
Slot as he will take his position with the club in June pending a work permit.

For what comes next for Jurgen Klopp, it’s still undecided whether he will look for another club
to coach or retire. It’s been rumored he might be the next sporting director for his past club
Borussia Dortmund.
