England legend Gary Lineker believes there is a good chance that Xabi Alonso will replace Arne Slot at Liverpool at the end of the season. While some recent claims have stated that Slot is still expected to stay on as Liverpool’s head coach beyond the summer, it still isn’t a guarantee, with FSG having a massive decision to make.

Speaking on The Rest Is Football [via SportsView], the respected Lineker talked up the idea of Alonso taking Slot’s place, having been a leading contender to replace him for some time: “Would Slot be there next season?” ‘Eleven defeats in the Premier League, still in the Champions League positions. I wouldn’t be surprised if Xabi Alonso was there next season.” Can Arne Slot turn things around at Liverpool?

Despite many wanting to see Slot sacked in the summer, there are still plenty who believe that he should get more time to turn things around, having won the Premier League title last season. But there have been too many negatives on show all season long, with Liverpool lacking the fitness, organisation and winning mentality that they did last term.
