In a surprising turn, new Liverpool manager Arne Slot declined the opportunity to move into Jurgen Klopps former mansion, a luxurious £4 million estate known for its lavish amenities, including a games room, swimming pool, sauna, jacuzzi, and private cinema. The club had offered the residence, historically known as a prime base for Liverpool managers, as a potential home for Slot when he took over this season. However, Slot ultimately decided to make other arrangements, and Liverpool has now listed the property for sale.
Slot shed light on his choice, expressing his own preferences and the reasoning behind his decision. Its a beautiful property, but it didnt quite fit the environment my family and I were looking for, Slot explained. We wanted something more understated, a place that better aligned with how we live day-to-day.
Despite opting out of Klopps former home, Slot has maintained a professional rapport with Klopp. I think its normal to reach out when you join a new club, Slot noted. I did the same when I arrived at Feyenoord, and Jurgens insights about Liverpool have been incredibly valuable. Klopp himself shared that he and Slot exchanged a few messages when Slot took on the role, emphasizing the supportive dynamic between them.
