Arne Slot has enjoyed a superb start to life as Liverpool boss after succeeding Jurgen Klopp and opens up on his relationship with the German, who turned down an invitation to return to Anfield

Liverpool boss Arne Slot says he's invited predecessor Jurgen Klopp to games this season. Klopp was replaced by Slot last summer and has since been appointed Red Bull's global football director. "I invited him to the City and Real home games but he told me he was somewhere else in the world," confirmed Slot.
