FORMER Arsenal midfielder Giovanni van Bronckhorst is set to join Arne Slot’s staff at Liverpool.

The 50-year-old is the leading candidate to replace Slot’s right-hand man John Heitinga, who quit the Premier League champions to become manager at Ajax.

Liverpool sporting director, Richard Hughes, has been keen to find a replacement ahead of pre-season and Van Bronckhorst, who has managed at Feyenoord, Rangers, and Besiktas fits the bill.

Although a deal has not yet been done, Van Bronckhorst is now in talks with the owning Fenway Sports Group about forming part of a backroom team alongside Sipke Hulshoff and Aaron Briggs.

The former Netherlands captain, who played for Arsenal between 2001 and 2004, is keen on a return to the Premier League, after spending the last six months working as a Uefa analyst.

Van Bronckhorst has never worked with Slot and doesn’t have a close relationship with him, although the pair share similar ideas around playing style and have both won the Dutch league.

If a deal is completed, Van Bronckhorst would arrive at the club with a wealth of coaching experience.

After retiring in 2010, he began his coaching career in Feyenoord’s youth setup before spending four years as the club’s first team manager, winning the Eredivisie in 2017.

Van Bronckhorst then replaced Steven Gerrard as Rangers boss in 2021, guiding them to the Europa League final in 2022 where they lost to Eintracht Frankfurt.

He was also in charge of the Scottish side, who he played for between 1998 and 2001, when they lost 7-1 to Liverpool in the Champions League in October 2022.

Following his dismissal a month later in November, he was also sacked from his position as Besiktas manager after five months in charge in December 2024.

Van Bronckhorst, who later turned into a left-back in his career, won the last of his 106 caps for the Netherlands in the World Cup final in 2010, captaining Heitinga as the Dutch lost 1-0 to Spain in Johannesburg.

Meanwhile, former Everton defender Heitinga wants to take goalkeeper Vitezslav Jaros, who made his Liverpool debut against Crystal Palace in the Premier League this season, to Ajax on loan.

ENGLAND’S World Cup qualifier with Serbia in September has been switched to Belgrade – as the Balkan side eye an upset.

Thomas Tuchel’s men had been expected to travel to Leskovac, a city of just 125,000 inhabitants 175 miles south of the capital on September 9.

But in a surprise U-turn, Serbian FA chiefs contacted Wembley bosses to inform them of the change in venue.

Instead of playing in the 8,000-capacity Dubocica Stadium, England will now have to stand firm in the face of nearly 50,000 home fans at Red Star’s Rajko Mitic Stadium.

The ground is known as one of the most intimidating in Europe and is nicknamed the “Marakana”.

Three days after the trip, England host Andorra at Villa Park.

In a statement, the Serbs explained: “After a detailed analysis, which, in addition to the sporting aspect, organisational and security segment, also included consultations with UEFA, it was concluded that the Rajko Mitic stadium, as the largest football facility in the country, will provide our national team with optimal conditions for playing matches of high importance.”

England have not played in Belgrade since a decisive European Championship qualifier in 1987.

Goals from Peter Beardsley, John Barnes, Bryan Robson and Tony Adams inside the first 24 minutes earned a 4-1 win over Yugoslavia.

The change of venue ensures they will face a fiercely partisan crowd, with the Serbs doubtless having taken some confidence from England’s narrow squeak past minnows Andorra and friendly defeat by Senegal.

Serbia are third in Group K with four points – five behind 100 per cent England – from their goalless draw in Albania and 3-0 home win over Andorra.

Their home game against Albania in October has also been moved to the capital.

MARK Wright has been slammed for sharing an insensitive post about flying – on the day of the tragic Air India crash.

The former Towie star, 38,  posted a snap of himself, wife Michelle Keegan and baby Palma posing in front of a private plane, as he moaned about the leg room on standard jets.

Appearing completely oblivious to the day’s events, Mark wrote alongside it:  “1 day babe, for now we’ll take row 26 with no extra leg room.”

His followers were quick to point out his lack of sensitivity, with one person commenting: “Prob not the best day to post this when so many people lost their lives on a plane.”

A second said: “Not really appropriate to put this up after today’s plane crash.”

While a third wrote: “Poor taste given today’s event.”

And a fourth added: “What a time to choose to post this.”

Radio DJ Mark has since deleted the post and blamed it on an admin error.

He wrote: “I apologise for a post I just put up on my page after today’s heartbreaking events.

“I have posts from a holiday that are on the scheduled setting, which go out on future days I have set them for which was done last week. It’s a horrendous coincidence that today’s post was on such a devastating day.

“Once I logged in to my Instagram and realised the post had gone out, I immediately deleted. My heart goes out to everyone who has been effected from today. I’m sorry for this mistake and any offence caused.”

Mark had been enjoying a break in Spain with his daughter and extended family.

Earlier today it was revealed that an Air India plane burst into a fireball while carrying 242 people, including 53 Brits, flying to London Gatwick airport.

A British man miraculously survived the crash after jumping off the flaming jet and was filmed walking away from the wreckage.

Police are now hunting through the rubble for any further survivors.

According to flight tracking website Flightradar, the Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner’s final signal was received just seconds after take-off.

This was last logged at 1:38pm local time – less than a minute after it started the journey.

King Charles II said he was “desperately shocked” by Thursday’s air crash in India, sending “prayers and deepest possible sympathies” to the families of those affected.

“My wife and I have been desperately shocked by the terrible events in Ahmedabad this morning,” the monarch wrote on Instagram, calling it a “heartbreaking and traumatic time”.

Google Cloud, Spotify and YouTube users reported issues simultaneously on Thursday.

Manchester United have opened talks to sign Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike ahead of Chelsea and Liverpool, according to reports in Germany.

Chelsea and Liverpool have already made an approach for Ekitike this summer, however, Frankfurt are demanding a €100 million (£84.3m) transfer fee for the 22-year-old.

United, meanwhile, are looking to reinforce Ruben Amorim’s attacking options ahead of the new season and have already completed a £62.5m deal to sign Matheus Cunha from Wolves.

However, United are also in the market for a central striker and have already seen Liam Delap snub a move to Old Trafford in favour of a transfer to Chelsea.

According to Sky Germany, United have contacted Frankfurt this week to express their ‘concrete interest’ and discuss a possible deal for Ekitike.

It’s understood that Chelsea have already refused to meet Frankfurt’s €100m (£84.3m) asking price and they value the striker closer to €80m (£67.4m).

Meanwhile, BILD have reported that Liverpool are also interested in Ekitike but their main focus has been to reach an agreement with Bayer Leverkusen for Florian Wirtz.

Earlier this month, reports in Germany claimed that Liverpool had held initial talks over a deal for Ekitike, who finished the campaign with 22 goals in all competitions.

Speaking this week, Frankfurt’s sporting director, Markus Krosche, insisted that the Bundesliga club are under no pressure to sell Ekitike this summer.

‘If the price isn’t right, then he’ll stay with us,’ Krosche told Wiesbadener Kurier. ‘We don’t have to sell Hugo.’
