Liverpool sack Arne Slot; Premier League boss favoured

Liverpool announced the dismissal of Arne Slot on Tuesday morning. The Dutch coach had secured the Premier League title in his first season with the club. Fabrizio Romano reported that a Premier League boss is the clear favourite to succeed Slot.

The club issued a bombshell statement confirming the termination. The announcement came despite the championship triumph achieved under Slot's leadership.

Romano identified the Premier League boss as the leading candidate for the vacancy. The unnamed manager currently leads a Premier League side and is linked to the Liverpool role.

The Premier League boss named by Romano is expected to be approached soon. Liverpool's next manager will inherit a title‑winning squad.
