“I find it lacking in honesty” – Arne Slot provides an update on the potential Liverpool transfer

Feyenoord manager Arne Slot emphasized that he will refrain from discussing any further links with Liverpool until an official announcement is made, but hinted that confirmation of his move to Anfield is imminent.

Last week, Slot expressed his desire to join Liverpool as Jurgen Klopp’s successor, and subsequent reports from both England and the Netherlands suggested that an agreement had been reached between all parties involved.

In anticipation of Feyenoord’s Eredivisie encounter with PEC Zwolle on Sunday, Slot addressed inquiries from Sky Sports regarding the timing of a potential announcement regarding his move to Liverpool.

“There’s no official announcement yet, and I am here with the Feyenoord crest on my chest, so the intention is to remain focused on Feyenoord. However, I anticipate that you will inquire regardless.”

Feyenoord, under Slot’s guidance, currently trails Eredivisie leaders PSV Eindhoven by nine points as they approach the final three games of the season, likely relinquishing their Dutch title.

Meanwhile, Liverpool finds themselves effectively out of the Premier League title race, trailing Arsenal by five points and Manchester City by four, with the latter holding an additional game in hand. Klopp’s side is set to face Tottenham Hotspur in their upcoming fixture on Sunday.
