Liverpool are the most successful club in English football, with 69 trophies to their name, three more than Manchester United (66). Thanks in no small part to some of the greatest managers in the history of the game.

The Reds have also been the most dominant English force in European and international competition, with 14 trophies in global tournaments so far, including winning the European Cup/Champions League SIX TIMES. Meanwhile Liverpool have claimed 19 domestic titles - 18 in the First Division era and one in the Premier League.

With names like Bill Shankly, Bob Paisley, Kenny Dalglish and Jurgen Klopp in more recent years, current boss Arne Slot has a tough act to follow. Success is expected at Anfield, and so often it has been delivered.

Current Liverpool manager - Arne Slot

Arne Slot is the current manager of Liverpool, after the Dutchman replaced Jurgen Klopp in the summer of 2024.

Slot (46) left Eredivisie giants Feyenoord to replace Klopp at Anfield, and quickly endeared himself to Reds fans by making a flying start to his first season in charge.

Arne began his coaching career with AZ Alkmaar in 2019, where he quickly made a name for himself, leading them to the top of the Eredivisie table before the season was cancelled due to COVID-19.

Slot's success continued when he moved to Feyenoord in 2021. During his time in Rotterdam, he led them to the Eredivisie title in 2023 and two KNVB Cup wins, earning praise for his tactical acumen and ability to develop young talent. His managerial skills attracted attention from top European clubs, and in June 2024, Liverpool came calling with an offer that was too good to turn down.

Before he moved into coaching, Arne’s playing career was primarily in the Dutch leagues, where he operated in midfield for clubs including PEC Zwolle, NAC Breda. and Sparta Rotterdam. He retired in 2013.

Known for his calm demeanour and tactical intelligence, Slot is regarded as one of the most promising coaches in European football, and the ideal man to take the Reds forward after Klopp ended his memorable nine-year stint at Anfield.
