Liverpool Clinch the Premier League Title: Arne Slot Writes a New Chapter in History

Table of Contents

 Liverpool have officially secured the Premier League title. In his debut season, Arne Slot immediately etched his name into The Reds' history books, matching a feat that only one other Liverpool manager had achieved in recent decades.

What makes this achievement even more remarkable? Slot spent just $16 million (around Rp240 billion) — solely to sign Federico Chiesa from Juventus. No other players were brought in during Slot’s first transfer window alongside sporting director Richard Hughes. Their patient, strategic approach has now paid off in spectacular fashion.

Slot Smiles as Rivals Miscalculate

While rivals like Arsenal and Manchester City clung to the idea that "success requires massive spending," Liverpool proved otherwise.
City and Arsenal splashed hundreds of millions only to stagnate—or even regress—while Liverpool rose above them with consistency, maturity, and clinical execution.

Klopp’s Legacy, Slot’s Golden Touch

It's true that Slot inherited a strong squad from the Jurgen Klopp era. But his ability to elevate the players' performances deserves major praise:

• Ryan Gravenberch blossomed into a world-class midfielder.

• Cody Gakpo and Luis Diaz rediscovered their sharpness.

• Even Mohamed Salah — already considered world-class — reached even greater heights.

Under Klopp, Liverpool finished third and ran out of steam late in the season. Under Slot, The Reds are on track to collect 94 points—in a season notably tougher and more competitive than recent years.

Sure, there were blemishes: a Champions League exit at the hands of PSG and a Carabao Cup final defeat to Newcastle. But overall, Liverpool’s campaign has been close to impeccable.

Next Season: Liverpool Are No Longer Underdogs

At the start of this season, all predictions pointed to Manchester City or Arsenal winning the league.
But Liverpool flipped the script:

• City now trail by 18 points.

• Arsenal wasted resources reinforcing areas that didn’t need fixing, while neglecting their blunt attack.

Pep Guardiola paid the price for misjudging the aging core of his squad, while Mikel Arteta suffered from half-measured planning.

Now, with Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk having extended their contracts, Liverpool under Slot will be firm favorites to defend the title next season.
While smart summer business will still be important to maintain momentum, this season has already proven one thing: patience, vision, and internal development can triumph over financial power.

Liverpool move forward from a position of strength, and one thing is certain:
They must never be underestimated again.
