Why is Arne Slot on Radar Following Xabi Alonso Exit?

Xabi Alonso's sacking has rung the alarm bells at Liverpool football club, as Arne Slot has come under tremendous pressure to perform at the highest levels for the remainder of the season if he wants to avoid the risk of parting ways with the club after one and a half years.

The German manager parted ways with the Royal Whites after the defeat in the Spanish Super Cup final against FC Barcelona. He is now tipped to replace one of the best managers, Arne Slot, at Liverpool if the Dutchman fails to perform in the upcoming games.

The season is getting into the business end, with each team wanting the best for what's left of the season. Los Blancos did what they thought was best, which might open up a new opportunity for the Liverpool football club.

Xabi Alonso’s Exit Put Pressure on Arne Slot

Liverpool struggled a lot in the past few days as they racked up several disappointing results on the trot, along with the Dutch manager's treatment of their star player, Mohamed Salah, which reportedly created an uneasy environment in the Liverpool locker room.

Rumours suggest that FSG (Fenway Sports Group) are looking for options in the market if the situation doesn't change for Liverpool in the coming days. Xabi Alonso, being one of the age-old stars for Liverpool, is among the first-choice replacements of Arne Slot. The German admitted his love for the club a few days back while he was still the coach of Real Madrid, but acknowledged back then that he was solely focused on the future.

As they say, someone's garbage is someone's treasure; it remains to be seen if one of the best clubs in the world, Liverpool, really pursues the treasure they want. Alonso's departure from Real Madrid might be premature, but it might be just the thing Liverpool would have wanted at this point.
