Liverpool Football Club have returned to the summit of English football in emphatic style, sealing the 2024/25 Premier League title with a commanding 5-1 demolition of Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield.
The victory not only secured the Reds’ 20th top-flight crown equalling Manchester United’s record but also marked a defining moment in the club’s new era under manager Arne Slot.
Slot, appointed last summer following the legendary tenure of Jürgen Klopp, has orchestrated a near-flawless campaign.
With four matches still left to play, Liverpool’s dominance has been undeniable with just two defeats in 34 games, a ruthless attacking unit, and a relentless hunger that made them unstoppable.
Former Liverpool striker Dominic Solanke briefly stunned Anfield with an early strike for Spurs, but that only lit the fire. Luis Díaz pulled Liverpool level before Alexis Mac Allister, Cody Gakpo, and Mohamed Salah put the match and the title beyond doubt.
Destiny Udogie’s own goal added to Tottenham’s misery and to Liverpool’s celebrations.
Mohamed Salah, ever the talisman, wrote a personal chapter of history too. His goal his 28th of the season saw him surpass Sergio Agüero as the highest-scoring foreign player in Premier League history, further cementing his legendary status at Anfield.
As the final whistle blew, the celebrations erupted. For the first time since 1990, Liverpool fans witnessed their team lift the league trophy at Anfield a moment of pure joy, decades in the making.
Slot, in a show of humility and respect, led chants honoring Jürgen Klopp, acknowledging the foundations his predecessor had laid.
Speaking after the match, a visibly emotional Slot said, “Winning the title at Anfield, in front of these incredible supporters, is beyond my dreams. This is their title, their victory.”
Slot’s achievement places him alongside elite company José Mourinho, Carlo Ancelotti, Manuel Pellegrini, and Antonio Conte managers who conquered England’s top flight in their very first season.
Ending Manchester City’s four-year reign, Liverpool’s 2024/25 title is not just a triumph, it’s a powerful statement, not only to City but also to their closest challengers, Arsenal, who sit in second place.
