Liverpool appoint Andoni Iraola as their new head coach following the sacking of Arne Slot, according to multiple outlets. Several reports say the agreement runs for two years, with BBC News and BreakingNews.ie describing it as a two-year contract.

Reports also describe Iraola as a coach associated with an aggressive style, and cite his intention to help Liverpool return to the intensity the club is known for. Sky Sports highlights practical priorities for his early period in charge, including addressing defensive issues and improving attacking effectiveness, as well as managing the atmosphere at Anfield.
Additional outlets report that Iraola travels to Liverpool to finalise the appointment details, with Vanguard noting he arrives to complete the Anfield deal. Some coverage also points to potential planning for the next transfer window, including mention of a potential initial signing target. Overall, sources agree on the key points of the appointment, the contractual timeframe, and the immediate context created by Slot’s dismissal.
