Arne Slot Commits to Feyenoord for the Long Haul

Arne Slot is in no hurry to leave Feyenoord. The trainer has made an impression at the Rotterdam club and this has also been noticed abroad. Slot was therefore in the spotlight of top European clubs last summer. Ultimately, a transfer did not happen and he extended his contract at De Kuip for one year

“I now have no reason to think that my future will look different,” Slot said in conversation with Voetbal International. ”There is nothing going on, there is no interest and I am busy with Feyenoord. I understand that people think that I have been here so long and that I am demanding. So I have to keep feeling whether players like it and whether they support it. I have a feeling they do, I don’t get any other signals. The reactions of players who let me know that they enjoy working under me, who love the football we play, gives me a lot of energy.”

Slot sees it as a serious option to represent the Feyenoord group for years to come. ”Yes, I could well become a kind of Arsène Wenger at Feyenoord, although you don’t see that much these days. Diego Simeone is an exception to the rule. When you walk into the stadium in Madrid, you see a bust of him.” Whether Slot will achieve that at Feyenoord is the question. The trainer noticed this season that sentiment can change quickly. ”This year is the first time that I have lost two games in a row, Atlético Madrid and PSV. That’s quite a lot of winning for the rest, but I still heard that sentiment was starting to change a bit.”

“You can also see that as a compliment,” the trainer continues. ”It is a consequence of what we have achieved together here at Feyenoord in recent years. Only when you, as a trainer, really get the feeling that people are starting to think less of it, should you draw your consequences. That point has not yet been reached. I think. I’m still having a great time at Feyenoord and I still get satisfaction from the challenges we have here and the development of players and the team. After every home game, when I hear the supporters walking down the stairs from the trainer’s room happily because they have been entertained again, I get that confirmation.”
