Arne Slott is in town as he prepares to officially take over at Liverpool on June 1, but there have also been reports of work permit issues for one of his key men from Feyenoord.
Slot a few days from the start
The Dutchman is just days away from his official start date and after being spotted on Merseyside for the first time last week, he remains in the city ahead of the June 1 start date.
The EchoPaul Gorst reiterated that he is already in town and will familiarize himself with his new home ahead of the big move for himself and his family.
