Liverpool, who saw Slot guide them to a 10-point Premier League title victory in his debut season, are struggling to defend their crown this term. The Reds currently sit fifth in the table, trailing leaders Arsenal by 21 points, casting doubt on Slot’s tenure beyond the summer.

Alonso, who was dismissed from Real Madrid earlier this year, is seen by senior officials at Anfield as the ideal candidate to oversee a potential summer overhaul, leveraging his experience and deep connection to the club.
