Jurgen Klopp says Arne Slot's potential appointment 'really good' for club

Jurgen Klopp has praised the quality of Arne Slot's football, adding his potential appointment is "really good" for Liverpool.

Liverpool are in talks with Feyenoord to appoint the 45-year-old, who revealed on Thursday he is "confident" of moving to Anfield.

Slot has impressed in the Netherlands, winning the Eredivisie last season and the KNVB Cup earlier this month, and looks set to replace Klopp, who is leaving at the end of the season after nine years with Liverpool.

Asked about his potential successor, Klopp admitted: "I don't know anything about it. I'm not involved in the process."

However, he added: "What I like is that, if he is the one, he wants the job. He is excited.

"I like the way his team plays football. All the things I hear about him are that he's a good guy.

"I'm looking forward for the club if he is the solution. It all sounds really good."

Liverpool have endured a difficult few weeks, exiting the Europa League to Atalanta and losing to Crystal Palace and Everton in the Premier League.

However, Klopp says the likelihood that Liverpool are unlikely to add any more silverware this season could make Slot's first season at Anfield easier, saying: "It's the best job in the world.

"It will help that we're not finishing on a high so there's space for improvement."

But listening to the praise from those who have worked with Slot, the mind was cast back to going through that same process not only with Ruben Amorim's admirers only
