VIDEO: Liverpool boss Arne Slot's new goalkeeper coach has introduced a revolutionary way of improving Alisson and Co. and it's absolutely mental

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.

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."

Several top players including Mohamed Salah, Konstantinos Tsimikas and Wataru Endo reported on the first day of pre-season. However, the club are still missing the services of 14 players due to international commitments.

The Premier League giants are set to travel to the US later this month where they will play friendly matches against Arsenal and Manchester United.
