In an astonishing twist that sent shockwaves through Anfield before sunrise, Liverpool have officially parted ways with Arne Slot — just hours after their painful 3–0 defeat to Manchester City.
Whispers had been circulating since the final whistle, but few expected the club to move this quickly. By dawn, the rumours became reality.
A short, emotionless statement from the club confirmed the decision, thanking Slot for his time before drawing the curtain on a reign that began with massive excitement… and ended in complete disarray.
A Season That Fell Apart Fast
What started with bold signings and big ambitions slowly spiraled. Despite bringing in talents like Florian Wirtz, Ryan Gravenberch, and Benjamin Šeško, Slot never managed to create the spark Liverpool fans expected.
Results dipped. Confidence faded. And inside the dressing room, reports suggest several senior players had quietly lost belief in the project.
The Board Had Enough
According to multiple insiders, FSG called an emergency meeting right after the City defeat — and the atmosphere was anything but patient.
“It wasn’t just the losses,” one source claimed. “The energy, the identity, the belief… everything had disappeared.”
The verdict? Immediate dismissal.
Fans Left Stunned
Supporters woke up to the news with a mix of shock, frustration, and relief.
Some insisted the decision was overdue. Others questioned the timing. And many — as expected — called for one familiar name…
Klopp Return? Alonso? Amorim?
The hunt for the next Liverpool manager began instantly.
Early names emerging include:
Jurgen Klopp — reportedly open to returning under “two special conditions.”
Xabi Alonso — hugely admired, tactically brilliant, and a Liverpool favourite.
Ruben Amorim — increasingly seen as a top contender.
The atmosphere around Anfield is now electric.
Slot’s Emotional Goodbye
Before leaving the AXA Training Centre, Slot spoke briefly to the squad, admitting that results had simply not been good enough and wishing the players success moving forward.
Top stars like Salah, Van Dijk, and Trent were seen leaving with sombre expressions — a sign of just how dramatic the morning had been.
What Happens Next?
Liverpool are expected to appoint a temporary manager within hours, with Pep Lijnders believed to be the leading option for the interim role.
And with huge fixtures looming, the next steps could shape the entire season… or rewrite the club’s future.
