Fabrizio Romano has just dropped the news we\u2019ve been half expecting for months: Arne Slot has been sacked as Liverpool manager. It looks like he will be replaced by Andoni Iraola.
Meanwhile former Liverpool player Xabi Alonso has signed up to take over at Chelsea<\/a>.
It\u2019s bombshell news for Liverpool and the Premier League as a whole, but it also sets up a fascinating dynamic between the two clubs for next season.
Many Liverpool fans wanted Alonso, and were dismayed their club didn\u2019t move to appoint a former player still beloved by the fans. The only explanation seemed to be that Slot was staying.
Meanwhile Iraola was heavy favourite for the Chelsea<\/a> job for a long time, before Alonso revealed his interest and a deal was done.
It creates a fascinating situation for next season where the two clubs will have the manager the other were very close to having. The rivalry is about to step back up a notch, especially if both teams are competitive.
Atletico Madrid are keen on Marc Cucurella, but are worried about his physical level after so much action in recent years.<\/a>
The average ratings from Chelsea\u2019s season make for interesting reading, with some players higher than you might expect.<\/a>
