Feyenoord player spotted in Liverpool end at West Ham ahead of Arne Slot’s impending appointment

A current Feyenoord player was spotted in Liverpool's away end for their 2-2 draw at West Ham amid Arne Slot's impending appointment as Reds manager.

Slot, who is currently in charge at Feyenoord, has reached an agreement in principle with Liverpool to take over from the departing Jurgen Klopp this summer.

The 45-year-old told Dutch media that he 'would like to work' at Liverpool, and the clubs had been in talks over a compensation fee before reaching an agreement on Friday.

Slot led Feyenoord to the Dutch Eredivisie title last season, and they won the KNVB Cup this season.

Given Liverpool's recent poor form and loss of ground in the Premier League title race, attention among fans has begun to switch to this summer and potential transfers in and out at Anfield.

Forward Santiago Gimenez has netted 21 goals for Feyenoord this season and, at 23 years of age, could be a perfect solution to what is becoming a problem position for the Reds.

And 22-year-old midfielder Quinten Timber - the brother of Arsenal star Jurrien - has seven goals and eight assists to his name and could be another potential target.

But a more concrete link between the Reds and Feyenoord involves defender Lutsharel Geertruida, who can play on either side as a full-back or as a centre-back.

The 23-year-old has six goals and four assists in the Eredivisie this season, and is entering the final 12 months of his contract this summer.

And Geertruida posted to his Snapchat account during the West Ham clash to show that he was in the away end with Liverpool supporters.

Last summer, the defender was linked with a high-profile move to the Bundesliga, with RB Leipzig seeing a bid rejected by Feyenoord.

It was claimed that the Dutch club were asking for a similar fee to the one paid by Arsenal to sign Jurrien Timber, which was an initial £36 million.

Given that his contract has edged 12 months closer to expiry since then, Liverpool could secure a deal for a smaller fee - and the attraction of reuniting with his soon-to-be former boss Slot could be too much for Geertruida to turn down.
