Overview
- Liverpool have left Arne Slot in post for now after a 1-1 draw with Sunderland left the team ninth following 14 league matches and only four wins in their last 14 in all competitions.
- Reporting indicates Richard Hughes and Michael Edwards are evaluating Crystal Palace’s Oliver Glasner as a potential successor, with no talks held and Manchester United also monitoring him.
- Latest coverage says Liverpool view Glasner as a Klopp-like profile and a preferred candidate, with background checks underway according to CaughtOffside and relayed by Yahoo Sports.
- Sources cited by Football Insider and Football365 say Steven Gerrard has been internally discussed as an interim through the summer, with an interim appointment expected if Slot is removed.
- It is believed sacking Slot would cost Liverpool over £8m in compensation, a factor shaping timing and approach in a limited manager market.
