Slot incredibly proud as Reds claim 20th Premier League title

Arne Slot admitted he was 'incredibly proud' after leading Liverpool to a record-equalling 20th English title with a 5-1 rout of Tottenham at an ecstatic Anfield on Sunday.

Slot's side wrapped up their first Premier League crown since 2020 with four games still to play, capping an incredible first season in charge for the Dutchman.

Liverpool have lost just two of their 34 league matches since Slot arrived from Feyenoord to accept the daunting challenge of replacing the beloved Jurgen Klopp.

The Reds are now level with Manchester United as the joint most successful club in English top-flight history.

They brushed aside Tottenham to start their title party thanks to strikes from Luis Diaz, Alexis Mac Allister, Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah before Destiny Udogie’s own goal.

Slot had been desperate to seal the title in front of Liverpool's fanatical supporters, rather than have to celebrate at another stadium, and he was relieved to get the job done in stylish fashion.

"It was clear we couldn't lose this game. Everyone on the bus said there's no way we're going to lose this game. They always find a way to win," Slot said.

"It is difficult to put into words. The scenes here and before the game tells you more than I can describe.
