Liverpool manager Arne Slot, who has won the Premier League in his debut season, can see himself staying with the English side for a long spell, saying the club and the owners both have a history of keeping faith in their managers for a long time.<\/p>\n
Slot’s predecessor Juergen Klopp stayed at Liverpool for over eight years, winning the Premier League, the Champions League and the Club World Cup during his tenure.<\/p>\n
Dutchman Slot, who said he was Liverpool’s only choice to succeed Klopp, joined on a three-year contract.<\/p>\n
“I could see myself working here for a long time because it’s a great club to work for and I’m really happy over here. This club has a history of having managers for a long time,” Slot told reporters on Friday.<\/p>\n
The manager cited Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger, who led Manchester United and Arsenal for over two decades, as examples of English soccer’s tradition of long-serving managers.<\/p>\n
Slot also talked about the Boston Red Sox, a baseball team that belongs to Liverpool owners Fenway Sports Group, where Alex Cora remained as the manager despite finishing bottom of the American League East division twice in a row.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
