Overview
- Xabi Alonso confirmed his Real Madrid exit in an Instagram statement after a short stint that included a 3-2 Spanish Super Cup loss to Barcelona.
- Former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy told talkSPORT he expects the club to monitor Alonso’s situation without making a hasty managerial change.
- Liverpool supporters are split, with some calling for an approach to Alonso and others urging patience with Slot.
- Slot won the Premier League title in his debut season and is now focused on securing Champions League qualification and pursuing the FA Cup and Champions League.
- Liverpool’s hierarchy is historically patient with managers, and any reassessment is viewed as contingent on season outcomes such as finishing in the top four.
