Sporting Lisbon manager Ruben Amorim supposedly made a good impression on Liverpool during their process of identifying managerial candidates, though they eventually felt that Arne Slot was “the one”, according to Neil Jones.
Speaking exclusively to CaughtOffside for his Daily Briefing column, Jones explained that there were several factors in Slot’s favour, with the Feyenoord manager showing in his previous roles that he can get his teams punching above their weight without a big budget to work with.
