On Friday, Feyenoord coach Arne Slot confirmed that he will take over Jurgen Klopp's as Liverpool manager.
Klopp is leaving the lines of the Reds at the end of the season after spending more than 8 years with in the Anfiel, winning the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and two EFL Cups.
After Klopp's announcement, several names were speculated for the position, before the name of Slot's became the strongest possible name for the position.
Slot: "I can confirm that I will become the trainer there next year."
"Until now I was not thinking about this being the build-up to my last match, but that starts coming now. At the beginning of the week you are thinking about training and those kind of things.
"But the feeling gets stronger now. That is why I'm a little bit late now [for the news conference], because I wanted to say goodbye to some people personally and take time for them, more than just shaking hands.
"I understand that good results help, but it is very nice to feel that people really are thinking it's a pity that I'm leaving."
Slot's final game at Feyenoord will be Sunday's against with Excelsior.
