Arne Slot reveals touching message from Jurgen Klopp following title triumph

Arne Slot continues Jurgen Klopp’s legacy with Premier League triumph and reveals touching message from the former boss

Arne Slot has emulated Jurgen Klopp by leading Liverpool to Premier League glory, and it’s evident the two share a strong connection.

Although the pair haven’t been publicly seen together, there have been regular reports of their ongoing communication — something that clearly continued following Sunday’s title win. When asked in his press conference who the most famous person to congratulate him was, Slot responded: “I assume that’s Jürgen [Klopp].”

He added: “What did he say? The same as most – congratulations, and now you understand how special this club is. You’re part of its history now – things like that.

“He was genuinely happy for me, the players, the staff, and the fans – exactly what you’d expect from Jürgen. I might be forgetting a few messages, but I’d say he was the most well-known.”

Klopp’s lasting influence on this team is still visible in many ways, from the mentality he’s instilled to the return of his trademark fist pumps. The Dutchman even led fans in singing Klopp’s chant — a fitting tribute to the legacy he stepped into.

Klopp deserves immense credit for laying the foundation for this title. His decision to give Slot access to training footage and leave behind a winning squad helped ensure a smooth transition for the former Feyenoord boss.

With Klopp expected to return to Anfield for the final match of the season, it’s only right that both he and Slot are recognized for their roles in securing Liverpool’s 20th league title.
