Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has confirmed that the club has already decided on a new vice-captain following Trent Alexander-Arnold’s summer exit, but he has not yet disclosed who will take on the role. Slot emphasized that Liverpool's squad currently contains ample leadership, with several candidates capable of filling the position.

Among the leading contenders for Liverpool’s vice-captaincy are Mohamed Salah, Alisson, and Andy Robertson, who are considered strong candidates to partner Virgil van Dijk in the leadership group. Slot refrained from revealing the name publicly but affirmed that the appointment is decided internally.

The vice-captaincy is regarded by the club as a position of respect and serious responsibility, filling a critical leadership role within a team undergoing significant squad changes and aiming to improve across all competitions. Liverpool's leadership pool is deep, with several players, including Salah, Robertson, Dominik Szoboszlai, Wataru Endo, Conor Bradley, and Ibrahima Konate, having experience as national captains or vice-captains.

Slot highlighted the importance of strong leadership as the team navigates various challenges and the emotional aftermath of the previous season. He suggested that the official announcement of the new vice-captain is expected before the upcoming season begins next month, coinciding with Liverpool’s pre-season preparations.
