FLORIAN WIRTZ is Arne Slot's big summer signing at Liverpool - but Giovanni van Bronckhorst could prove to be his best.

- BY RYAN TAYLOR

The exit to Ajax of highly-rated assistant coach Johnny Heitinga - an unsung hero of last season's Premier League title triumph - was a blow.

But now Liverpool have recruited a vastly-experienced, high-class replacement in van Bronckhorst, who has already won seven trophies during managerial spells in Holland, Scotland and Turkey.

The former Rangers, Arsenal and Barcelona star - capped 105 times by the Netherlands - has lifted more silverware as a manager [five trophies] than Slot at Feyenoord and also guided the Dutch giants to Eredivisie glory for the first time in 18 years.

It's no surprise, however, to see him jump at the chance to work alongside his compatriot at Anfield, as the pair set their sights on another slice of history - an English-record 21st league crown.
