Agent of high-profile manager spotted watching PSG vs Liverpool as Slot faces uncertain future | OneFootball

Arne Slot is facing uncertain future at Liverpool as the defending Premier League champions continue to struggle. After being knocked out of the FA Cup against rivals Manchester City, the Reds lost their first leg of the Champions League quarterfinal against Paris Saint-Germain.

Having already gone out of the Premier League title race months ago, Liverpool’s season is falling apart and Slot is struggling to save it.

Against PSG, the most significant development may not have occurred on the pitch, but rather in the VIP stands of the Parc des Princes.

Inaki Ibanez, the prominent agent representing highly coveted manager Xabi Alonso, was spotted in attendance after reportedly flying in via private jet from San Sebastian, according to Football Fan Cast.

Liverpool continue to sink deeper every week

Slot is currently navigating his darkest hour on Merseyside. The 2-0 defeat in the French capital was not just a poor result, it was a damning indictment of the team’s current tactical weakness.

The Champions League now represents the club’s final glimmer of hope for silverware this term, having already crashed out of all domestic cup competitions.

More worryingly, the defending Premier League champions find themselves in genuine danger of slipping out of the top four entirely.

Failing to qualify for next season’s Champions League would be viewed as a catastrophic failure by Fenway Sports Group (FSG), especially after the club sanctioned a massive financial outlay to reinforce the squad during the summer transfer window.

Arne Slot to get replaced by Alonso at Anfield?

Alonso holds emotional connection with the Liverpool fans. He was a successful midfielder during his time at the club and helped the club win the Champions League in 2005.

His managerial career has been impressive, even though he was relieved off his duties at Real Madrid just a few months in his tenure.

The Spaniard won the league title with Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga and ended Bayern Munich’s dominance in Germany.
