Liverpool's candidate to replace Slot revealed

The crisis at Anfield continues to escalate as European media simultaneously reported that Liverpool is quietly planning to replace coach Arne Slot.

Nagelsmann could replace Slot at Anfield.

On November 22, the shocking 0-3 defeat to Nottingham Forest at Anfield caused "The Kop" to fall to the bottom half of the rankings with only 18 points after 12 rounds.

Immediately after the humiliating defeat, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano said that Liverpool's board had not made any decisions. However, the pressure on coach Slot quickly reached alarming levels.

Firing the Dutch coach is not simple, because his contract is until 2027 and the compensation is said to be very large. However, a series of replacement candidates soon appeared.

According to Bayern Space - the first and accurate leaker of Florian Wirtz's move to Liverpool, sporting director Richard Hughes contacted Julian Nagelsmann's agent to explore the feasibility. The conversation was described as a conversation aimed at understanding Nagelsmann's long-term intentions - in case Slot was fired.

However, Hughes' side was informed that Nagelsmann will not leave the German team before the 2026 World Cup. However, if the German team disappoints, an early farewell could happen in the context of Liverpool being considered a historic destination.

Notably, Jurgen Klopp is said to be pushing Liverpool to approach Nagelsmann. There are even sources saying that he will take over the German national team if Nagelsmann leaves. Once at Anfield, Nagelsmann will be the key to reviving Wirtz. The young coach knows Wirtz well at the national team level.

Coach Slot's future is therefore increasingly questioned, while Liverpool is quietly preparing for all scenarios.
