The red side of Merseyside erupted in celebration as Liverpool FC clinched their 20th English league title with a commanding 5–1 victory over North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on Sunday.
Goals from midfielders Cody Gakpo and Alexis Mac Allister, alongside strikes from forward Luis Díaz and the ever-reliable Egyptian King, Mohamed Salah, powered the Reds to their second Premier League title—marking their first since the historic triumph in 2020. Tottenham’s only consolation came from Dominic Solanke.
With four games still remaining in the season, Liverpool secured the top spot in the Premier League table, sitting comfortably on 82 points after Sunday’s emphatic win.
This title win comes in the very first season under new manager Arne Slot, who took over the reins following the departure of Jürgen Klopp in 2024. Klopp, who spent eight legendary years at the club, leaves behind a legacy of silverware and unforgettable moments—his successor now writing the next glorious chapter in Liverpool’s storied history.
Despite dramatic exits from other competitions across England and Europe, Liverpool held their nerve in the league, making them arguably the best club in England following today’s win.
Meanwhile, Liverpool talisman Salah is expected to win the Premier League Golden Boot, having scored 28 goals so far. He is also on track to become the league’s top assist provider this season, with 18 assists to his name.
Earlier this month, club captain Virgil van Dijk and Salah signed new contracts, extending their stay with the club.
Van Dijk joined Liverpool in January 2018 from Southampton and quickly established himself as one of the world’s elite defenders. He took up the captain’s armband after Jordan Henderson left the club in the summer of 2023.
Salah has solidified his status as a Liverpool legend since arriving from AS Roma in the summer of 2017.
These contract extensions, announced on the club’s official website, ensure continued leadership and attacking brilliance for Liverpool in the seasons ahead.
