Liverpool have been handed a significant injury scare just days before their FA Cup encounter with Manchester City after Jeremie Frimpong was forced off during the international break. The wing-back, who has been a vital part of Arne Slot's system this season, lasted less than a quarter of an hour after being introduced for the Netherlands.

Hungary head coach Marco Rossi has issued a blunt response to Arne Slot after the Liverpool manager publicly called for his international stars to be rested. The Reds boss expressed his hope that national team coaches would manage minutes carefully, but Rossi has made it clear he does not take orders from Anfield.

Despite a dip in form that has seen fans voice their frustrations at Anfield, Liverpool are "sticking with" Arne Slot. The Athletic journalist David Ornstein has dismissed suggestions that the hierarchy is looking to make a change in the dugout, noting that the club is already planning for the future with the Dutchman at the helm.

Xabi Alonso is reportedly "ready" to succeed Arne Slot as Liverpool manager this summer. While Slot remains in his post for now, Liverpool's terrible Premier League title defence has left the Dutchman’s future looking increasingly untenable beyond the end of the current campaign. Alonso is said to be waiting in the wings, eager for a fresh start on Merseyside following his recent departure from Real Madrid.

After the mini-montage of memorable Mohamed Salah moments, the man himself entered the frame and took a seat in front of his colossal trophy cabinet. After a brief pause, and a deep breath that turned into a sigh, he began to speak, "Hello, everyone, unfortunately, the day has come." And there can't have been a single football fan across the world that didn't know what that meant: Salah was leaving Liverpool.
