'I would like that a lot': Jurgen Klopp gives stamp of approval for Arne Slot as next Liverpool manager

Jurgen Klopp has broken his silence over Liverpool's potential appointment of Arne Slot as his successor.

The boss spoke to the press ahead of Liverpool's clash with West Ham in the Premier League on Saturday.

"I didn't read anything but Arne has said something," said Klopp. "I am not involved, club-wise.

"I would like a lot that if he is the one he wants to take the job and is excited. I like his team's style, all I hear about him as a guy.

"Some people I know tell me. Good coach. All sounds really good to me. Best job and club in the world. And healthy, space for improvement. Fantastic people."
