Liverpool have appointed Andoni Iraola as their new head coach on a two-year contract, following the sacking of Arne Slot.
The decision to dismiss Slot was taken by the club's board after a run of disappointing results. Iraola, who has previously managed in La Liga, will take charge immediately.
“Liverpool have named Andoni Iraola as head coach on a two-year contract, replacing the sacked Arne Slot.”
The appointment marks a new direction for Liverpool, who had hoped Slot would lead the team back to the top of English football. However, after less than a season in charge, the club opted for a change.
Iraola's two-year deal signals an intent for stability, but also puts pressure on him to deliver early results. The club's supporters will be watching closely to see how the new manager approaches the upcoming fixtures.
No further details were provided about Iraola's backroom staff or his immediate plans. The club is expected to hold a press conference later this week.
This is a developing story. More updates will follow as they become available.
