Graham Potter is on the shortlist to replace the sacked Premier League manager
Former Brighton and Chelsea manager Graham Potter has emerged as one of the favorites to replace Arne Slot at Feyenoord.
Current Feyenoord manager, Slot, will take over the Liverpool job from Jurgen Klopp at Anfield.
The decision has not yet been officially announced but after intense discussions, they are close to reaching an agreement.
Slot will join the Merseyside club in what will be the biggest challenge of his impressive managerial career.
However, that opened up for Potter, who is one of Feyenoord’s candidates, according to The Times.
Another Dutch team, Ajax, is looking to appoint Potter who was the manager of the Premier League.
The manager was sacked by Chelsea almost a year ago after a disappointing seven months at the club.
The Blues appointed Potter after his impressive career at Brighton, where he adopted an attacking style of play that caught the eye.
However, his spell at Chelsea was a disaster and ended in failure.
Apart from Potter, Feyenoord are considering hiring Slot’s former assistant manager, Marino Pusic, who leads Shakhtar Donetsk in the Ukrainian league.
The England manager has been linked with a number of jobs in recent months, Manchester United being one of them.
With Erik ten Hag facing an uncertain future at the club, Potter has been linked with the Old Trafford job and the club’s new owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe is reportedly keen on the 48-year-old manager.
Graham Potter has impressed clubs across Europe
The former Swansea manager is in high demand especially for his work at Brighton.
His high-pressure attacking style of football, which is a style adopted by many teams these days, makes him a strong contender for several jobs.
It remains to be seen where Potter decides to go, Ajax, Feyenoord or maybe Man United.
