30.05.2026The Day Arne Slot Was Sacked

The day was dominated by Liverpool's dismissal of Arne Slot after a disappointing season, a story carried across AD, NOS, and RTL. Earlier, editors focused on a fatal traffic accident involving a 13-year-old boy in Amsterdam, framed by Het Parool as a chronic neighborhood danger. Infrastructure concerns persisted with RTL's coverage of the Merwedebrug bottleneck. By afternoon, attention shifted to former Philips CEO Frans van Houten's plea for European industrial autonomy in Het Financieele Dagblad, and growing discontent in Ter Apel over the overcrowded asylum center, reported by NRC. International stories included Taiwan's war preparations and a court order to remove Trump's name from the Kennedy Center.
