In a significant twist for Liverpool supporters, Van Bronckhorst will not be arriving alone. He is set to be joined by Sipke Hulshoff, who will take on a vital role within the new coaching structure. The move represents a swift departure from Anfield for the pair, who had been working alongside Slot in the Premier League.
Hulshoff, in particular, was a key figure in Slot’s staff at Liverpool, where he carried the primary responsibility for field training sessions. Having previously worked under Slot during Feyenoord’s rise to the top of Dutch football, Hulshoff also brought international experience to the table, having served in Ronald Koeman’s Netherlands national team setup from early 2023 until the summer of 2024.
