Liverpool boss Arne Slot used his pre-match programme notes to pay tribute to forward Diogo Jota as the striker's two former Premier League sides meet at Anfield on Saturday. Wolves make the trip to Merseyside for the first time since Jota tragically lost his life in a car crash in July. The Portuguese hitman's brother, Andre Silva, was also in the car at the time.
Arne Slot has backed Hugo Ekitike to continue his electric run in front of goal, praising the Liverpool striker for his "hard work" off the pitch and determination to succeed in what is proving to be a fruitful first season in England. Ekitike looks set to have increasing pressure placed on his shoulders following a broken leg suffered by Alexander Isak, but Slot praised the Frenchman for his efforts to get "fitter and fitter".
Tottenham head coach Thomas Frank launched a passionate defence of Micky van de Ven after Liverpool boss Arne Slot was critical of the centre-back's challenge that left Alexander Isak with a fractured leg. The Reds beat nine-man Spurs 2-1 on Saturday evening, with Isak opening the scoring for the visitors. However, he was unable to continue after breaking the deadlock due to injury.
Alexander Isak may have suffered a fractured fibula, but a broken leg may not have brought his 2025-26 campaign to a close. Liverpool boss Arne Slot has delivered a recovery update on the most expensive player in British football. He is confident that the £125 million ($169m) Sweden international striker will play Premier League football again this season.
Steven Gerrard has delivered a clear verdict on Arne Slot’s future amid mounting pressure at Liverpool, insisting he wants the Dutch manager to turn things around rather than be replaced at Anfield. However, the Reds legend also made it clear he would return to Anfield in any capacity if asked by the hierarchy, underlining his enduring loyalty to the club.
There were worrying scene at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as Liverpool's marquee summer signing Alexander Isak was helped off the pitch after picking up an injury in the process of scoring the Reds' opener against Spurs. The Sweden international's time at Anfield has been hampered by injury and boss Arne Slot has issued a brief update on the situation.
Arne Slot has revealed how Liverpool are helping Florian Wirtz amid an upturn in form following a slow start to life at Anfield. The German playmaker swapped Bayer Leverkusen for Merseyside this summer but he has not lived up to his huge £116 million ($156m) transfer fee. But a change in approach from the Reds may be helping the 22-year-old heading into Christmas.
Arne Slot has offered a revealing update on Liverpool's January transfer window plans amid links with Crystal Palace star Marc Guehi and Bournemouth ace Antoine Semenyo. The Reds spent nearly £450 million ($602m) on players over the summer but missed out on England centre-back Guehi and seemingly have desires over bringing Ghana winger Semenyo to Anfield as well. But Slot has given little away over a potential double deal.
Mohamed Salah has apologised to the Liverpool dressing room following his incendiary interview earlier this month, team-mate Curtis Jones has revealed. The Reds midfielder insists the squad are united behind the Egypt forward despite him accusing the club of “throwing me under the bus” on the back of the dramatic Premier League draw with Leeds United.
Arne Slot will not speak about Mohamed Salah while the Liverpool forward competes at the Africa Cup of Nations, saying both he and the Egypt star have “moved on” following his incendiary interview earlier this month. The Reds manager has issued his stance on the eve of his side’s trip to Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League on Saturday evening.
Arne Slot’s position as Liverpool head coach is not under immediate threat, even if the Reds suffer what has been described as a "horrendous" defeat away to struggling Tottenham. Former midfielder Don Hutchison believes patience will be shown, though he warns that continued inconsistency could still derail Liverpool’s season and leave Champions League qualification out of reach.
Jamie Carragher has offered Mohamed Salah some fresh advice after the Liverpool star's recent public outburst. The Egyptian claimed he had been 'thrown under the bus' by Arne Slot and the club, resulting in the winger being dropped for the Reds' Champions League win over Inter. Salah was reintegrated into the squad at the weekend for the win over Brighton, where he provided an assist after coming on 26 minutes in for the injured Joe Gomez.
Things are really heating up in the run-up to Christmas across Europe's top leagues, with Inter reclaiming top spot in Serie A, Lens surprisingly leading the way in Ligue 1 and Barcelona continuing to pile pressure on Xabi Alonso's Real Madrid. Over in Germany, though, it seems that nobody is really capable of dethroning Bayern Munich, but Premier League leaders Arsenal are looking more and more nervous with each passing week.
Arne Slot says there is "no issue to resolve" with Mohamed Salah after the Liverpool forward returned to the fold in Saturday’s 2-0 victory over Brighton. The Egypt star was left out of Tuesday’s Champions League win over Inter Milan after an explosive interview in which he accused the club of "throwing me under the bus" and saying his relationship with the Reds boss had broken down.
Liverpool manager Arne Slot has hailed new signing Hugo Ekitike after he bagged another brace to secure a 2-0 win over Brighton in the Premier League on Saturday. The French striker now has 10 goals in all competitions for the Reds so far in 2025-26 and is starting to prove his worth following a big-money move from Eintracht Frankfurt in the summer transfer window.
Liverpool manager Arne Slot shared his thoughts on talisman Mohamed Salah after Saturday's 2-0 Premier League win over Brighton at Anfield. Slot started with Salah on the bench but turned to the forward in the first half after defender Joe Gomez was forced off injured. Salah went on to pick up an assist in the game in what was his final appearance for the Reds before heading to the Africa Cup of Nations with Egypt.
