With all eyes on Jurgen Klopp’s departure and his successor, Liverpool have cast the whitewash on manager Arne Slot. The 45-year-old, who has a proven record of results at Feyenoord and a reputation for using youngsters, will face a new challenge at Anfield.
Old rivals Manchester United also have a Dutch manager in Erik ten Hag, who moved from Ajax in 2022. He was rumoured to have stepped down at the end of last season due to his inconsistent performances, but the owners have faith in his ability to win the FA Cup.
In the new season of the Dutch duel, former Dutch midfielder Wesley Sneijder said that United, who have already spent two seasons with Erik ten Hag, are close to the title. Meanwhile, he praised both managers for doing a great job.
“Because they have time to build something,”
“The coach will stay and they are confident enough in the coach to build on something. So I believe they will be stronger this season than last season.”
“They are both good coaches. Slot did an amazing job with Feyenoord and at United, they are very confident with Ten Hag. He has extended his contract, also Ruud Van Nistelrooy, I just got the news that he will be involved.”
“So I think they can do a big job because they have amazing players at United. There has to be a team, they need time. That is what it is looking like so far, they give time to build a team. I think this season they will go for some prizes.”
