Arne Slot is eager to replace Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool with the Premier League side opening talks with Feyenoord to bring him to Anfield.
The Dutchman emerged as the new front runner for the manager?s role on Merseyside this week after Liverpool missed out on Xabi Alonso, who has decided to stay at Bayer Leverkusen.
Slot, who was pursued by Tottenham last summer, wants to join Liverpool ‘at all costs’, with the Premier League side now entering negotiations with last year?s Dutch champions.
De Telegraaf report ‘serious negotiations’ are underway between Richard Hughes, Liverpool’s newly-appointed sporting director, and Feyenoord officials who are seeking at least ?10million (£8.5m) in compensation for losing their manager.
Slot would also be eager to bring his backroom staff with him to Merseyside.
The 45-year-old guided Feyenoord to their first Eredivisie title in six years last season and has developed a reputation for an attacking style of play and developing burgeoning young talents.
His side lifted the Dutch Cup after a 1-0 win over NEC Nijmegen on Sunday but look set to miss out on another Dutch title, trailing PSV Eindhoven by nine points.
