Arend Martijn Slot (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈɑrnə ˈslɔt]; born 17 September 1978) is a Dutch professional football coach and former player who is the head coach of Feyenoord. He was previously manager of AZ Alkmaar.

In his current role, he led Feyenoord to the 2022 UEFA Europa Conference League final and the 2022-23 Eredivisie title. In 2023–24 he won the Dutch KNVB cup with the team.

Playing career

Slot started his football career at amateur side VV Bergentheim, from Bergentheim, the place where he was born. He then moved to FC Zwolle, where he got into the first team as a 17-year old in 1995. Slot started his professional career struggling with injuries and little playing time under the management of Jan Everse, but eventually became a goal-scoring attacking midfielder in Zwolle. In 2002, FC Zwolle won the Eerste Divisie to return to the Eredivisie after 13 years. Slot moved to NAC Breda in the same year. Under the management of Henk ten Cate, NAC Breda finished fourth in the Eredivisie in Slot's first season, NAC Breda's best league finish since 1956. Slot played his only games in European football in the first round of the UEFA Cup in 2003 as NAC Breda lost 5–0 and 0–1 to Newcastle United. He joined Sparta Rotterdam in the summer of 2007 before returning to FC Zwolle in the Eerste Divisie in 2009, on a loan deal at first and on a permanent deal in 2010. FC Zwolle won the Eerste Divisie in 2012 to return to the Eredivisie, where Slot played one final season before retiring as a player. According to teammate Edwin de Graaf, he was "not so fast". Everse believes that with a lack of physicality, Slot got the most out of his playing career thanks to his passing and vision.

Coaching career

After retiring from playing in 2013 at PEC Zwolle, Slot moved onto the club's staff, working as a youth coach for a year, before being appointed as an assistant coach at Cambuur.

On 15 October 2016 he became interim coach together with Sipke Hulshoff in Leeuwarden after head coach Rob Maas was fired.

AZ

In 2017, Slot left Cambuur to join AZ, working as an assistant to John van den Brom. He succeeded Van den Brom as head coach in 2019. In his first season in charge, the Eredivisie was cancelled midway due to the COVID-19 pandemic. AZ finished second behind Ajax on goal difference, although no title was awarded for the season.

On 5 December 2020 he was sacked as head coach of AZ for not being focused on the team, having recently negotiated a deal with Feyenoord. In his time at AZ, Slot earned 2.11 points per game in the Eredivisie, the highest of any coach in the club's history.

Feyenoord

On 15 December 2020, Feyenoord announced that the club had reached a deal with Slot for him to become the club's new coach from the start of the 2021–22 season. The deal would see Slot sign for two years, with Feyenoord having the option to extend his contract for a third year. Slot succeeded the experienced Dick Advocaat, who led the team to a fifth place in the Eredivisie and qualification to the UEFA Conference League Qualifiers. Slot was appointed to build a new team with a recognisable playing style. Marino Pusic (first assistant coach) and Robin van Persie (field coach) were added to his staff, while John de Wolf was retained as second assistant coach.

During Slot's first season, Feyenoord finished third in the Eredivisie, behind Ajax and PSV. The club also reached the final of the inaugural Europa Conference League, their first European final since 2002. Slot was awarded the Rinus Michels Award for the Eredivisie Manager of the Year.

In Slot's second season as coach, Feyenoord won the league, the club's first league title since 2017 and sixteenth in the club's history. In May 2023, Slot was heavily linked with the vacant managers job at Tottenham Hotspur. By the end of the month, Slot announced he would be remaining with Feyenoord and extended his contract to mid-2026.
