"Arne Slot is not affected", this is the news made public by Sky Sport UK. The Reds are ending a trophyless season, but at least for the moment they are in the Champions League zone, apparently that is enough to keep the Dutchman on the bench. The club's leaders have held a one-on-one meeting with Arne Slot, giving him confidence, confirming him at the head of the team for the new season. Slot landed at Liverpool two years ago replacing Klopp. His impact on the team was extraordinary, winning the Premier League title, but things did not go well this season, especially after investing millions in the transfer market.

The English team was eliminated from the Champions League in the quarter-finals by PSG, while in the Premier League they quickly fell out of the title race. This result significantly questioned his future, and the media even hinted at a dismissal for a long time, but apparently the club's leaders do not think so.

Having secured their Champions League spot, Slot and the board will sit down at a table to plan the new season. The priority is finding a successor for Momo Salah, with the Egyptian this time effectively leaving Liverpool, a decision made public by both parties a few days ago.

The confirmation of Slot at the head of the team is a clear signal from the club's leaders, the team's base for the new season will be the same, this time no crazy investments are planned in the transfer market, but work will be done with current players.
