Less than a week after being sacked by Liverpool, Arne Slott has rejected an approach from Fulham to become their new head coach.<\/p>\n
The Dutchman, who won the Premier League in his first season at Anfield, was relieved of his post last Saturday after a disappointing season as manager. Impressive outgoing Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola was then confirmed as Slott’s successor, with the 43-year-old signing a two-year deal.<\/p>\n
Slott’s stock has fallen following a disastrous title defense against Liverpool, but he remains an attractive option and it was revealed this week that Fulham made an immediate play for him.<\/p>\n
However, The Times reported that Slott is not interested in the Craven Cottage vacancy and is content to wait for a suitable job opportunity to present itself after leaving Anfield.<\/p>\n
The 47-year-old is already being discussed as a candidate to coach the Dutch national team after the World Cup.<\/p>\n
Fulham confirmed that current manager Marco Silva will leave the club when his contract expires earlier this week. He is ready to replace Real Madrid’s Jose Mourinho as Benfica’s manager.<\/p>\n
Kieran McKenna is thought to be one of Fulham’s targets to replace Silva, but signing the Ipswich Town manager will not come cheap.<\/p>\n
McKenna will be paid around \u00a38m after taking Ipswich back to the Premier League.<\/p>\n

Former Brentford and Tottenham manager Thomas Frank is another manager being linked as a possible target for Fulham. However, the Dane released a statement on Friday confirming that he will not be taking another job this summer.<\/p>\n
Frank, who covers the World Cup as a pundit for the BBC, said: “There have been discussions and opportunities since I left Spurs, but I have decided not to rush into a new role. For me, this summer is not the right time to return to management.”<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen the time is right, I look forward to returning as manager and am ready to approach the job with great energy and dedication.\u201d<\/p>\n
