WHAT HAPPENED?
Otte, who was part of the United States Men's National Team coaching staff at Copa America 2024, has cut short his holiday to join Liverpool's pre-season, which started on Friday. The goalkeeper coach has implemented a new method in training wherein the shot-stoppers wear noise-cancelling headphones and glasses while performing their drills.

WHAT ARNE SLOT SAID ABOUT FABIAN OTTE
The new Reds boss was thrilled to welcome Otte early into the pre-season, telling LFCTV: "He also had a tournament, he was with the USA team. Unfortunately for him, they went out of the tournament. I gave him a few weeks off but he said, ‘No, I want to come as soon as I can’. He’s already in now after a one-week holiday.
"I think that is what you like to see. Although having a holiday is important, you like to see staff members and players want to come in as early as they can to join the team and help us for, hopefully, a very good season."
