Dirk Kuyt provides glowing Arne Slot reference as Liverpool interest intensifies | OneFootball

Arne Slot was a name that many Liverpool fans hadn’t heard of several days ago but Dirk Kuyt is a much more familiar figure and he has provided his insight on the coach.

Speaking with The Athletic, our former striker said: ‘Arne loves the game and thinks about football 24/7. That passion shines through when he speaks. He’s always studying other teams and thinking about how his team can improve and evolve.

‘Tactically, he’s very strong. What people like most in Holland, where his reputation is so high, is that he has his own vision, his style of play.’

This tactical nous will hopefully provide us with the edge across a season in the Premier League and there’s plenty of reason to be excited for the future.
