Manager described as having “a special aura” emerges as possible replacement for Arne Slot at Liverpool.

According to SPORT, Liverpool are reportedly considering Club Brugge boss Nicky Hayen as a possible successor to Arne Slot.

Despite sitting third in the Premier League, Slot is under scrutiny following a poor run of form, with Liverpool losing six of their last eight matches in all competitions. Performances have dipped, and the Dutchman has struggled to maximise the squad’s potential, even after significant summer investment. The question now is whether Liverpool will decide to part ways with him.

Hayen emerges as a contender
Hayen is viewed as a promising coach, though he lacks experience at the highest level. The Liverpool role could be a huge leap for him. Haverfordwest chairman Rob Edwards believes Hayen could land a major job within the next two years, describing him as a manager who carries “a special aura.” Taking over at Liverpool would undoubtedly be an exciting opportunity for him.

The situation is expected to unfold over the coming weeks. Slot will be keen to turn Liverpool’s season around and retain his position. Having delivered the league title last season, he still holds a significant amount of trust within the club. Therefore, Liverpool are unlikely to make any hasty decisions and are expected to give him time to improve results.
