Liverpool have confirmed head coach Arne Slot is to depart his role as head coach, according to a club statement on May 30, 2026.

Liverpool sacked head coach Arne Slot on Saturday after a disastrous defence of their Premier League title.

The club, who finished fifth in the table, said the Dutchman, who has been at Anfield for two seasons, would "depart his role as head coach with immediate effect".

Liverpool fans turned on Slot after some poor performances and there was some disharmony in the dressing room, with Mohamed Salah the most outspoken.

"Liverpool FC can confirm Arne Slot is to depart his role as head coach with immediate effect and that the process to appoint a successor is under way," the club said in a statement.
