Liverpool assistant coach Giovanni van Bronckhorst is under consideration for the Indonesia manager vacancy, sources have told Football Insider.

The Indonesian Football Federation (PSSI) are in the process of finding a new head coach following the dismissal of Patrick Kluivert last month in the wake of the country’s failure to qualify for the 2026 World Cup.

Indonesia have close ties with the Dutch with an ever-growing pool of naturalised heritage players in the Indonesia camp being Dutch-born.

Former Rangers and Besiktas boss Van Bronckhorst joined Liverpool in the summer to work in Arne Slot‘s coaching staff.

He joined as a replacement for John Heitinga following his departure to Ajax. However, Heitinga has recently been sacked by Ajax following their poor start to the season.

Liverpool exit edging closer after contact made

Despite making it to round four of the AFC group stage qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup, Indonesia suffered two gut-wrenching defeats to Saudi Arabia and Iraq which ruined their hopes.

Now, the Football Association is turning its attention to the next international tournament with the 2027 Asian Cup offering an opportunity of redemption.

Liverpool facing up to tricky second season under Arne Slot as questions starting to be asked

The Reds’ shock 3-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest has cast further doubt over Slot amid an unsettled coaching team.

Liverpool have now lost six matches in the Premier League this season, already more than their title-winning four defeats in 2024-25.

Former Man United and Blackburn chief scout Mick Brown exclusively told Football Insider that Slot must turn around Liverpool’s poor form.

Whilst whispers of a possible sacking are not out of the question, the Dutchman will certainly be given more time, especially with the influx of so many new faces at Anfield from last summer.

Chemistry is clearly lacking for the Reds as they aim to resurrect their inconsistent start to their title defence.

Oliver Glasner to turn tide at Liverpool as dramatic Arne Slot sack development emerges

Oliver Glasner could be about to turn the tide at Liverpool with Arne Slot’s situation growing graver by the day.

The Reds’ recent struggles in the Premier League continued on Saturday, as they were beaten 3-0 by Nottingham Forest in a heavy defeat on home turf.

Matt Le Tissier exclusively told Football Insider that he questioned the resolve of the Liverpool players during their recent defeat to Manchester City, and things didn’t get any better for them this weekend.

The walls are rapidly closing in on Slot despite the Merseysiders’ superb title-winning campaign last time out, and he now finds himself firmly walking the tightrope.

Arne Slot in line to be next Premier League sacking

Slot’s position at Liverpool felt unquestionable a mere matter of months ago, but now there is a serious possibility that he could potentially be entering his final days in charge at Anfield.

There is simply no sign of the Dutchman being able to drag his team out of their recent slump, that has seen them fall into the bottom half of the Premier League table.

The form table makes for grim reading for Liverpool, as only Leeds United and Wolves sit below them over the last five league games.

Discussions surrounding a potential exit for Slot are spreading wider with every passing game, and he is now the second-favourite to become the next top-flight boss to lose his job, after Daniel Farke.

The situation facing the ex-Feyenoord chief has become so grave that a clear favourite has emerged to take over from him in the dugout, and that is Crystal Palace’s Oliver Glasner.

The Austrian feels destined for a big job in the coming months after he led Palace to their first ever piece of major silverware last term, and he will undoubtedly be on the radar of some of the world’s biggest clubs.

Liverpool need to make contract with Oliver Glasner before taking Slot decision

Glasner is currently leading Crystal Palace in their first European campaign in 27 years, and with that in mind, Liverpool should be trying to seek assurances regarding his future before they make a snap decision on Slot.

The 47-year-old achieved great things during his first campaign in charge, but if the Reds make contact with Glasner’s camp and the indication is that he would be prepared to jump ship mid-season, then it could potentially be the final nail in the coffin for him.

However, if Glasner suggests that he would prefer to see out the remainder of the project that he has begun in South London, then it may sway FSG and the Liverpool hierarchy to remain patient with their current chief.

Glasner has already taken Palace to remarkable new levels, as well as outperforming Liverpool so far this season, and he would undoubtedly help the Anfield outfit back to the top end of the table if he did take over

Arsenal NewsMikel Arteta insists Leandro Trossard was never for sale

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed that he had no intention of selling Leandro Trossard during last summer’s transfer window.

The Gunners produced a commanding display against their north London rivals, Tottenham Hotspur, winning 4-1. Trossard opened the scoring for the Gunners, setting the tone for the victory.

During the summer, several reports linked Trossard to a possible exit from the club. Arteta has now revealed that he did not consider letting the Belgian leave.

Arteta commends Trossard’s performance

Speaking after the win, Arteta said: “Yeah, for me, no, because for me it was forbidden for him to leave. No chance. I know the player that he is, and surrounded with the players that we have, he is a player that is going to make a difference for us.”

The manager praised Trossard’s performance against Spurs, calling it one of the player’s finest displays. He highlighted Trossard’s aggression and effectiveness both with and without the ball.

Arteta added: “I fully agree, it was one of the best games, so aggressive with and without the ball, so effective, he could have scored another one or two goals, and he was involved in so many positive actions. So that is what we need. As I said, I think individually, the players were excellent today.”

Trossard’s form continues to impress

The £19 million-rated star has been in strong form for Arsenal this season, contributing five goals and five assists in 15 appearances across all competitions.

His ability to create chances and finish them has become a key asset for Arteta’s side. His influence has been evident in the Gunners’ impressive start to the season.

The victory over Spurs strengthens Arsenal’s position in the Premier League, showing the team is capable of dominating high-profile matches.

Following this north London derby success, Arsenal will now turn their focus to European action.

They will welcome Bayern Munich to the Emirates Stadium in the Champions League, aiming to continue their strong form.

Arteta’s confidence in Trossard and the Belgian’s current performance underline the importance of keeping key players. His presence has proven decisive in Arsenal’s ongoing campaign.

Arsenal fans will hope that Trossard can maintain his form and help the team in both domestic and European competitions.
