Liverpool reportedly engages in 'secret crisis talks' with Xabi Alonso amid mounting pressure on Arne Slot. The Reds, struggling this season with nine losses, sit sixth in the Premier League and risk missing out on Champions League qualification. Following a disappointing 1-0 loss to Galatasaray, speculation grows that Slot may be sacked if he fails to secure a European spot. A Spanish report suggests Alonso has a 'verbal agreement' to replace Slot, with Champions League success potentially altering that scenario. Meanwhile, David Ornstein of The Athletic insists that Liverpool remains committed to Slot, who is under contract until 2027. Ornstein emphasizes that the club's hierarchy backs Slot and believes he can turn the season around. Despite fan frustrations, Ornstein sees no imminent coaching change, as Liverpool aims to solidify its squad for the future.
