The final member of Arne Slot’s Liverpool backroom staff has confirmed his exit.
Roderick van der Ham served as an analyst in the Dutchman’s ranks during his two-year spell at Anfield, which ended just a week after the previous campaign ended.
The 35-year-old joined the Reds in late 2024, having previously worked under Slot at his former club Feyenoord alongside Sipke Hulshoff and Ruben Peeters.
Both the former assistant manager and fitness coach along with fellow deputy Giovanni van Bronckhorst all departed Merseyside shortly after Slot’s sacking.
Van der Ham was widely anticipated to follow suit and revealed on LinkedIn that his contract has now come to an end as Andoni Iraola’s fledgling reign gets underway.
“June has come to an end, and so has my time at Liverpool Football Club,” he wrote.
“It has been a privilege to work for such a club, but even more so to share every day with many great people. I’ve enjoyed all of it, without a single regret.
“To all the staff and everyone at the AXA Training Centre and Anfield: thank you for a period I’ll always look back on with so much joy and gratitude.
“Being part of the group that won the Premier League in 2024/25 was the highlight of it all, a wonderful memory I’ll carry with me.”
Iraola is set to replace Van der Ham with Tom Webber, who will be one of several arrivals from his recent employers Bournemouth in Liverpool’s new-look setup.
Also joining the Basque on Merseyside are deputy Tommy Elphick, coach Shaun Cooper and fitness coach Pablo de la Torre, whose appointments are imminent.
Liverpool are understood to have secured the release of the trio from the Vitality Stadium with a compensation package while De la Torre will join as a free agent.
