Feyenoord set to offer Tottenham target Arne Slot a substantial salary increase
According to 1908.nl, Feyenoord are set to offer talented young Dutch manager Arne Slot a substantial salary rise in a bid to keep him away from Tottenham Hotspur.
Feyenoord is a club steeped in history, with a loyal fanbase that expects nothing but the best. This season, Arne Slot has delivered just that, leading his side to the brink of Eredivisie glory, breaking Ajax’s run.
Tottenham Hotspur are among the clubs interested in luring Arne Slot away from Rotterdam. The North London outfit are said to hold a ‘dormant interest’ in the Feyenoord boss, who has earned plaudits for his team’s entertaining brand of football.
Despite this interest, Feyenoord are fighting to keep their man. The club are set to offer Slot a ‘substantial salary increase’ in a bid to convince him to stay for at least another season. It is being claimed that the offer is an ‘ultimate attempt’ to keep the coach.
It’s not hard to see why Feyenoord are so keen to keep hold of Slot. The team’s attacking style of play has won them many admirers, and Slot has been hailed as a rising star of Dutch coaching.
While Feyenoord’s offer may be tempting, the lure of the Premier League is hard to ignore. Tottenham are a club with a rich history of their own, and the chance to manage in one of the world’s most competitive leagues may be too good to turn down.
For Spurs, Slot represents a potential alternative to Julian Nagelsmann, who has been heavily linked with the job. The RB Leipzig boss is widely regarded as one of the most promising young coaches in Europe, but his high profile could make him a difficult target to land.
If Nagelsmann proves unattainable, then Slot could well emerge as the next best option. His success at Feyenoord has shown that he has the ability to manage at a high level, and his attacking philosophy would certainly appeal to Tottenham’s fans.

However, Arne Slot’s lack of experience in the Premier League could end up haunting him. After all, the Premier League is a different ball game to the Eredivisie, and the step up might be too soon for the Dutch coach. Let’s see what Daniel Levy thinks.
