Fabrizio Romano latest on "signed and sealed" move with Liverpool announcement imminent

Fabrizio Romano has hinted at Liverpool’s imminent announcement of Arne Slot as their new manager could happen within the next week.

The verbal agreement between Liverpool and Feyenoord was reportedly reached last Friday, and since then, it's been a matter of when, not if, the 45-year-old would be confirmed as Jurgen Klopp's replacement at Anfield.

What's the latest on Arne Slot to Anfield?

In his latest update via Caught Offside's Daily Briefing, Romano revealed that all necessary paperwork has been completed, and it's now just a matter of waiting for official announcements from both clubs to finalize the move.

Romano explained: "The latest is that Liverpool and Feyenoord have signed all documents for Arne Slot’s imminent move to replace Jurgen Klopp.

"The club statement is planned between clubs for this week, but the deal is all done and sealed."

Romano comments on Amorim links

Romano also provided some more info on Amorim's failed move to Liverpool: "At one point, it looked like Ruben Amorim was the frontrunner for the Liverpool job, but it was never a done deal, never something agreed.

"Liverpool spoke to Amorim’s camp, they had contact as Liverpool were informed of release clauses and details of his contract at Sporting, but he was just one of the candidates, never a done deal, never a verbal agreement, never the chosen one. It was a conversation and there was interest, that’s it."

Liverpool will announce Arne Slot as new manager soon

The confirmation of Slot as Liverpool's new manager will bring a sense of relief and closure to fans eager for an official announcement.

Although many supporters would have preferred Klopp to stay, knowing the identity of his successor before the end of the season helps smooth the transition.

With Liverpool's final Premier League match against Wolves approaching, the team and fans can bid a grand farewell to Klopp, knowing that Slot's era is about to begin.

The confirmation of his appointment would also allow him to start planning for the summer transfer window and pre-season preparations.

While Slot might not have been the first-choice replacement for many Liverpool fans, his credentials have shown that he is more than capable of stepping into Klopp's shoes and guiding Liverpool into the future.
