Liverpool have officially been crowned Premier League champions, securing the title with four games to spare following a dominant 5-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur.
Under Arne Slot, who replaced Jurgen Klopp last May, the Reds have reclaimed their status at the summit of English football.
Sunday’s result, coupled with Arsenal’s recent slip-ups, mathematically confirmed Liverpool’s 20th league crown — equalling Manchester United’s long-standing record.
Liverpool initially fell behind against Spurs but responded quickly, leading 3-1 at halftime before sealing the emphatic win.
Their triumph comes after a crucial 1-0 victory over Leicester City, which effectively sealed relegation for the Foxes.
Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal, Liverpool’s closest rivals, drew three consecutive matches this month, making it mathematically impossible to catch the leaders.
Liverpool now enjoy the largest points gap at the top since Manchester City’s 18-point lead in 2020.
Star forward Mohamed Salah, who recently signed a two-year contract extension, has been crucial, registering 27 goals and 18 assists, the highest totals in both categories this season.
The Reds have lost only twice in the league, a feat last matched by Manchester City during the 2017/18 campaign.
To maintain that statistic, Liverpool must avoid defeat in their remaining fixtures against Chelsea, Arsenal, Brighton and Crystal Palace.
