The inside track on the football stories that matter
Arne Slot may not have much say over recruitment at Liverpool, making a raid on the Eredivisie unlikely after his arrival., senior correspondent Pete O’Rourke explained that Liverpool have changed their backroom structure with the return of Michael Edwards and multiple new staff.
It is said that the data-driven focus behind the club’s recruitment under Edwards means Slot, 45, may not be able to bring the players he wants to Anfield. However, he will be keen to work with players he knows well to give him a foothold in the dressing room, and conversations with the club could see him recommend options.Slot’s time in the Eredivisie has allowed him to build strong connections with some of the league’s top players who have since been linked with moves to Anfield.
The data-based recruitment system has secured some of the club’s top deals, so while the manager may be able to lend advice, the recruitment team will focus on getting the right moves over the line.
