When Liverpool decided to move for Arne Slot as Jurgen Klopp’s successor, part of their thinking was the Dutchman’s similar style of play to the departing Reds boss.

Conducting his first interview with the club last week after officially starting as Liverpool’s new head coach at the start of the month, it was a fact Slot quickly addressed directly.

“I think there are and I think that is also one of the reasons why I came in,” he conceded. “Because I think the way Liverpool ‘scouted’ me, they were looking for, not the exact same type, but I think when something has been successful [with] a certain way of playing you would like to extend this or to go on with this. This is probably one of the reasons they came to me as well.
