Liverpool have parted ways with head coach Arne Slot with immediate effect following the club’s end-of-season review, bringing an end to the Dutchman’s tenure at Anfield.

The decision comes after a disappointing 2025/26 campaign, despite Slot having guided the Reds to the Premier League title in his first season in charge.

Liverpool’s hierarchy reportedly opted for a managerial change after assessing the club’s performances and future direction.

Slot, who succeeded Jürgen Klopp in 2024, leaves the club after two seasons at the helm.

Liverpool acknowledged his contributions, including delivering the club’s 20th English league title, while thanking him for his service.

Attention has now turned to the search for a new manager, with Andoni Iraola emerging as the clear favourite to take over as Liverpool’s next head coach.

The Spaniard has earned widespread praise for his work in English football and is viewed as a strong candidate to lead the club into a new era.

Liverpool are expected to begin the process of appointing a successor in the coming days as preparations for the 2026/27 season gather pace.
