Liverpool FC can confirm Arne Slot is to depart his role as head coach with immediate effect and that the process to appoint a successor is under way.
He leaves with a Premier League title to his name and our deepest gratitude and appreciation.
[🟢] NEW: It is worth noting that Klopp’s own team also wasn’t built overnight and was the product of around five windows.
This is partly why Liverpool still back Arne Slot and believe a full rebuild under him is yet to take place. Hughes remains committed to that task.
The fact Hughes and FSG’s CEO of football Michael Edwards are both out of contract at the same time in 2027, along with Slot, presents a challenge for FSG.
Liverpool’s current strategy has been built on Edwards’ player trading, which may also require some senior player exits moving forward.
The plan is to have a stable summer as far as any senior executive restructuring is concerned and an active one in relation to trading led by Hughes.

Arne Slot unlucky tonight.
Gave his team the best possible chance to win.
Diamond in possession, direct play + packed the middle for second balls, man-to-man defensively.
First half, nobody bar van Dijk executed.
Second half, everyone did, but missed the final action.
Injuries and conceding a low probability goal when Liverpool were on top sums up a large part of the season.
But, over the course of two legs, Arne Slot and the players only have themselves to blame.
In Paris, Slot’s back 3 was a mess.
At Anfield, the tactics were spot on but the players only started to execute collectively for one half, but even at that the finishing touch was missing (49 touches in the opposition box, close to 2 xG, 20 shots… no goals).
Now the focus has to be on securing Champions League football for next season.
And doing so in a cohesive and balanced style which bodes well for the future.
The performances and results matter a lot in the league. Liverpool need clarity ahead of the summer transfer window so they can attack next season with a genuine possibility of winning major titles.
