Liverpool have announced that Arne Slot has left his
role as head coach with immediate effect.
The Dutchman, who has been at Anfield for two seasons,
departs after the club finished fifth in the Premier League table.
Liverpool fans turned on Slot following a number of
poor performances, and there was some disharmony in the dressing room, with
Mohamed Salah the most outspoken.
"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 underway," the club said in a statement.
It added that club bosses had decided that Liverpool
needed a change of direction.
"That does not diminish the work Arne has done
here, or the respect we have for him," the statement added.
"Nor is it a reflection of his talents. Rather,
it is indicative of the need for a different approach.
"Arne leaves with our gratitude, with a Premier
League title to his name, and with the knowledge that he and his family will
always be welcomed back at Anfield."
