Liverpool’s senior leadership convened a high-level emergency meeting on Tuesday, according to a well-connected source on X, and the outcome does not appear to favour under-fire manager Arne Slot.
The timing of the meeting has only intensified concerns about Slot’s future at Anfield following Liverpool’s dramatic and damaging defeat to Bournemouth, a result that has deepened the club’s ongoing Premier League crisis.
The defending champions, who lifted the title last season, now find themselves languishing in 6th place.
Liverpool have already suffered seven Premier League defeats this campaign, marking one of the most turbulent title defences in recent club history.
Their poor form, combined with several damaging setbacks against lower-table opposition, has raised urgent questions inside the club about the direction of the team and the viability of Slot’s long-term project.
Sources within the club describe the Premier League season as deeply alarming, with the team lacking consistency, structure, and the defensive resilience that defined the Jurgen Klopp era.
The loss to Bournemouth, widely regarded as one of the most disappointing performances of the season, appears to have been a tipping point for many in the hierarchy.
There is a growing internal anxiety about the team’s trajectory, while fan frustration has reached its highest point since the transitional period following Klopp’s departure.
The fact that Sunday’s meeting reportedly centred on Slot’s performance, tactical approach, and dressing-room management adds further weight to the speculation that his job is now hanging by a thread.
For a club of Liverpool’s stature, expected to compete for the title and maintain Champions League standards, this level of underperformance is a major concern.
The outcome of the board meeting remains undisclosed, but the tone emerging from club insiders suggests that Slot is dangerously close to the sack.
Every poor result pushes him further to the brink, and with tough fixtures ahead, the pressure is immense.
Liverpool’s hierarchy are now faced with a difficult and defining decision, stay patient with a manager still early in his tenure, or act decisively to prevent the season from slipping further into disappointment.
