Tyler Morton Reflects on Arne Slot Treatment and Liverpool Exit

Tyler Morton, the 22-year-old midfielder, has opened up about his emotional departure from Liverpool after 17 years at the club. Following a frustrating final season under manager Arne Slot, Morton made a permanent move to Lyon in the summer of 2025, where he has since thrived as a regular in Ligue 1.



During the 2024-25 season, Morton featured in just five appearances across all competitions, accumulating only 253 minutes of playing time. When asked whether Slot rated him, Morton revealed the core issue: lack of trust rather than ability. "I think he thought I was a good player, but I don't feel the trust was there as much," Morton stated in an interview with SPORTbible.

Despite his limited opportunities, Morton demonstrated professionalism throughout the challenging season. He postponed shoulder surgery to remain available for selection and played through pain for a Champions League opportunity, only to be left out of a dead rubber match against PSV—a decision that deeply frustrated him.

Morton emphasized that he performed well when given chances in cup competitions and maintained focus despite the setback. He had candid conversations with Slot during the season but ultimately disagreed with the limited game time. Rather than becoming bitter, Morton channeled his frustration into motivation.

Now flourishing at Lyon under Paulo Fonseca's management, Morton has moved past the disappointment. "I'm really proud of myself for getting through last season and getting myself to this position," he reflected, describing the transfer as one of the summer's best deals.
