Liverpool will offer Slott a generous new contract, expected to replicate Klopp s nine-year term

Despite the three-year contract with Liverpool for only one year, Fenway Sports Group (FSG) plans to offer a generous new contract to the new Premier League champion coach.

Arne Slott led the team to win the Premier League championship in the first season of Anfield, and now he admits that he is "promising Klopp's nine-year term".

Klopp signed a three-year contract when he joined in October 2015, and the contract was renewed for six years after the end of the first quarter. Slott also took office with a three-year contract last summer, and FSG obviously hopes that the Dutchman can continue his glory - especially in the context of his debut.

Before the finale of Liverpool's season against Crystal Palace (the Premier League champion award ceremony will be held after the game), Slott refused to disclose whether the contract renewal negotiations have begun. But when asked if he had imagined a long term, he said:

"Of course it is possible. This club has always had a tradition of appointing coaches for a long time, just like Wenger and Ferguson. There is a general lack of patience in football, but England may be the exception. I would love to stay here for a long time because it is an unparalleled club. "

Slott revealed that he is watching FSG's MLB ball The team's documentary and specifically mentioned Boston Red Sox coach Alex Cora: "Even if he is at the bottom of the first two seasons, he still remains. This reflects the dual influence of club history and management style - if there is a club that can allow the coach to coach for a long time, it must be Liverpool. "

In fact, Cora won the World Championship in the first season of the Red Sox (2018), but has made it to the playoffs only once in the next five years, but has renewed its contract until 2027. Slott believes that this "patience" is the key to his establishment of the dynasty:

"It is arrogance to talk about nine-year terms after only one year of coaching. Guardiola and Klopp can stay in office for nine years not only because they won numerous championships, but also because of the trust given by the club - both are indispensable. "

Slott's long-term plan may face challenges: Assistant coach Johnny Hedinga has an affair with Ajax. Dutch giants fired their coach after missing the league championship at the end of the season and are looking for a new coach.

"If Ajax is wise enough, he should consider him (Hedinga). He is ready to be on his own. But if John is wise enough, he should stay for another year." Slot said with a smile.
