Marco van Basten believes Feyenoord boss Arne Slot can follow Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool manager.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Klopp dropped a bombshell on January 24 when he announced his departure from the Reds once this season concludes.<\/p>\n

The news, reminiscent of Bill Shankly’s exit five decades prior, surprised everyone. We are left asking who succeeds the German tactician after he transformed Liverpool from a club looking from the outside to arguably England’s finest.<\/p>\n

    There will be no shortage of candidates, but the fan’s choice, Xabi Alonso, will not undertake what must be deemed an unenviable task. Alonso, who guided Bayer Leverkusen to a first Bundesliga title and breaking Bayern Munich\u2019s relentless 11-year monopoly, has decided to remain in Germany, overseeing the club\u2019s forthcoming Champions League campaign.<\/p>\n

    Another potential candidate, R\u00faben Amorim, could end up at West Ham after potentially guiding Sporting CP to a second Portuguese championship in three seasons. Amorim’s present deal in Lisbon expires this summer, which cannot be said for Slot, who is set to remain at the Rotterdam giants until June 2026 after extending his contract last year following heavy coverage of succeeding Antonio Conte as Tottenham’s full-time head coach.<\/p>\n

    However, despite staying, Van Basten feels Slot — linked with the vacant Anfield job — is ready to leave the Netherlands and can set up at several European powerhouses, including Liverpool.<\/p>\n
