Behind the scenes, Liverpool have appointed Richard Hughes from Bournemouth as the sporting director and Pedro Marques from Benfica as the technical director, which Hogan says will bring “new energy and vision.”
Hughes and Marques will focus solely on transfers and supporting Slot but FSG will continue to explore a multi-club structure after insurmountable issues caused talks with French club Bordeaux to collapse.
Hogan said it was “sad” Bordeaux have filed for bankruptcy as alternative options are “something being looked at by Michael Edwards”.
On financial controls within the Premier League, Hogan said Liverpool remain committed to strong rules.
“I think it is important that the rules have teeth and if clubs fall foul of that then the Premier League has a process to go through. We are supportive of those rules and being sustainable,” he said.
But he backed the different interests within the league to find an alternative solution to Premier League profit and sustainability regulations as rules closer to UEFA’s are being discussed.
“We are trying to find the best way to operate for all of us going forward,” he continued.
“We have the most competitive and global league, and it’s important we keep it that way.”
Liverpool are among 10 clubs on tour of the United States, with others travelling to Asia or around Europe, and he addressed the environmental impact of such tours, which were detailed in BBC Sport’s recent report.
“We have the foundation event here in Philadelphia with a group of people engaging with our supporters and bringing the club out to markets and supporters who may not get the opportunity to come to Anfield or Liverpool. In terms of the overall environmental impact, that’s something we take very seriously.”
Liverpool next face Arsenal in Philadelphia before taking on Manchester United in South Carolina to end their US tour.
