Arne Slot’s position at Liverpool has come under fierce scrutiny after nine defeats in 12 matches, prompting prominent journalist Michael Reif to suggest that former boss Jurgen Klopp could realistically return if results do not improve and the Anfield hierarchy decide a change is unavoidable. Reif argues Klopp holds enormous emotional capital with supporters, describing Liverpool as “burned to the ground” and warning that Slot must stop the slide. With Klopp rested in his Red Bull role, Reif believes the club would be negligent not to explore a reunion.
