Final deal edging closerWHAT HAPPENED?
With Klopp set to depart at the end of the season after eight years at Liverpool several candidates for the job have been floated, but Slot has emerged as the frontrunner with the deal on the verge of completion. Now has reported that the Reds will pay his current club a compensation fee of €9 million plus €2m in add-ons (£9.4m/$11.8m), which would make him the third most-expensive manager in the history of the Premier League.

Earlier this week, it was revealed that the move was edging closer and a substantial compensation fee was to be confirmed, with some reports suggesting that that sum would be significantly more than the €11m package agreed upon.
