Anfield bosses are reportedly close to agreeing on a compensation package with Feyenoord for the Dutch manager. Liverpool’s initial offer of approximately £7.7million, including bonuses, was turned down by Feyenoord on Wednesday morning. The Reds proposed an upfront payment of £6m, with an additional £1.7m in performance-related bonuses.
Slot is keen to bring his right-hand man Sipke Hulshoff to Merseyside, while Ruben Peeters, the current head of performance, is also tipped to join Liverpool, replacing Andreas Schlumberger. However, John de Wolf, Slot’s assistant trainer, is expected to remain in the Netherlands after recently renewing his contract at De Kuip and could be part of the revamped coaching team in Rotterdam if Slot does indeed leave.

Face-to-face negotiations between Liverpool and the Dutch heavyweights are anticipated in the coming days. “We also treat our community members to competitions, special offers, promotions, and adverts from us and our partners. If you don’t like our community, you can check out any time you like.
