Overview
- Dutch and UK reports, which surfaced Thursday, say Arne Slot wants to reunite with Etienne Reijnen once the Dutch coach completes his qualifications.
- Reijnen’s 2024 switch to Liverpool collapsed due to a UK work-permit denial, with new licenses now viewed in reports as the key to unlock a move.
- At Feyenoord he runs set-piece work and is credited with 11 goals scored and only four conceded from dead balls this season, a specialty Liverpool lack since Aaron Briggs left.
- Local coverage also links assistant Giovanni van Bronckhorst with a potential return to Feyenoord, while John Heitinga is being floated as a possible addition back at Anfield.
- Yahoo Sports notes Slot is likely to remain for 2026–27 with Champions League qualification in reach, setting the stage for targeted backroom tweaks rather than an overhaul.
