"Slot" has made his decision after Liverpool missed out on all trophies this season, with fans demanding his dismissal.
On 14 May 2026, Arne Slot, Liverpool's manager, gave a recent interview at a press conference ahead of the 37th week of the 2025-26 English Premier League season. Liverpool will visit Aston Villa on Friday, 15 May, in a direct battle for 4th place, aiming to secure a spot in the UEFA Champions League.
4. Liverpool – 59 points (goal difference +12)
5. Aston Villa – 59 points (goal difference +4)
Arne Slot addressed the Liverpool fans’ online campaign "Arne Slot Out," which has gathered around 2 million signatures demanding the club remove him as manager after the team missed out on all trophies this season and now faces a tough fight for a Champions League spot in the final two Premier League games.
The Dutch manager spoke about his future at Anfield, saying, "I have every reason to believe I will be Liverpool’s manager next season, and I still have a contract."
"(Regarding fans questioning his future at Anfield) I think the world has changed. If a manager or club doesn’t perform at their best in a season, there will always be debates—not just at Liverpool but across football. This is the new reality in the sport."
"It’s not my role to judge those who judge me. They have the right to express their opinions. This has happened 10-15 years ago, but back then, people discussed it in pubs and not everyone heard. Now it might even happen in pubs, and if I read what they say, they’ve probably had a lot to drink! It’s more exposed now. I’d be surprised if it were any different at Liverpool."
"(Regarding plans for next season) We already know where we will tour. There are plans and discussions with the club about new players, and I am involved in that process as well."
