Andoni Iraola left his role at Bournemouth at the end of the season and takes over at Liverpool in place of Arne Slot.
Liverpool has named Andoni Iraola as their new manager after sacking Arne Slot following a calamitous Premier League title defence.
Iraola quickly emerged as Liverpoolâs top target to replace Slot, whose two-year reign came to a shock end when he was dismissed last Saturday.
Liverpool gave no indication as to the length of the 43-year-old Spaniardâs contract, but British media have reported that he has signed a two-year deal.
âReally excited, really excited, because obviously you know about Liverpool, you know that itâs a big club, a massive club, one of the biggest in the world,â Iraola, who called time on his impressive spell with Bournemouth at the end of this season, said on Liverpoolâs official website on Thursday.
