Liverpool may been sticking with Arne Slot for now, but few outside of the club are happy with the Dutchman.
The Reds suffered their joint-most Premier League defeats in a single season since 2014/15 (12), qualified for the Champions League with a very low points total, and Slot’s comments continue to anger fans.
In turn, it is not surprising to see Danny Murphy now urging the club to do everything they can to get Luis Enrique from PSG.
With Arne Slot expected to stay, will Liverpool challenge for the Premier League next season?
Or will it be another difficult campaign? 😬
Liverpool told to make Luis Enrique their next manager
PSG are in Champions League final action against Arsenal this week, looking to go back-to-back in the competition.
The Spaniard has transformed the French outfit into one of the most dominant teams in Europe, and now Murphy thinks Liverpool need to ‘break the bank’ to secure his services.
Speaking to talkSPORT, he said: “I would do everything, I would try and break the bank and do anything I can to get Enrique.
Murphy was then asked: “Really? You think Enrique would come here?”
He responded by suggesting that if PSG beat Arsenal, he will have done everything he can with the Ligue 1 side and will surely want a new challenge: “Well, if he wins the Champions League again, what more can he do?
“He must be bored there. Playing in a Mickey Mouse league, where he wins every week. All he’s looking forward to is the Champions League. Must want more challenge, surely.
“They play, if you watch PSG as a Liverpool fan, you’re thinking, ‘that’s how I want us to play, like Klopp’. A bit like Klopp’s team, aren’t they, PSG?. And if you’re one of the biggest clubs in the world, go and get the best.”
Is Andoni Iraola the right man to replace Arne Slot this summer? 🤔
Another manager would like the Liverpool job
While an Enrique appointment does feel somewhat unrealistic, it is hard to see Liverpool sticking with Slot throughout 2026/27.
And even if they do, the Dutchman’s contract at Anfield will expire at the end of next season, and a new manager will be needed.
One man who has seemingly thrown his hat into the ring for the role is Lens manager Pierre Sage.
Speaking to Tele Foot recently, Sage was asked if he had a dream destination and said, ‘A club that makes me dream is Liverpool’.
Lens finished the 2025/26 campaign second in Ligue 1, just six points behind PSG.
