Rafa Benitez has been speaking about Arne Slot after his move to Liverpool to replace Jurgen Klopp as manager was confirmed
Rafa Benitez believes Liverpool's movement in the transfer market this summer will be pivotal to Arne Slot making a success of replacing Jurgen Klopp - and named another big aspect of the job he is taking.
Meanwhile, Bournemouth's sporting director Richard Hughes will begin the same role at Liverpool from June 1 alongside Michael Edwards - who returns as owners Fenway Sports Group's 'CEO of football' - and Julian Ward who is also back on board as FSG's technical director. "Following Jurgen Klopp is not easy, but the most important question for any manager going into a new club is always, ‘How good are the players?’ and ‘Can they fit how we want to play?’
Benitez added: "Another big aspect of the job is dealing with the media. You cannot ignore what is said or written about Liverpool, or what they call ‘the noise’. It is impossible. Sometimes you need to know what the pundits are saying because you will be asked about it in the press conferences. It is better to be educated to prepare.
