Slot’s side are now just three points away from being crowned champions, and could even have it all wrapped up before they next play against Tottenham.

Alexander-Arnold’s goal comes amid the backdrop of what could be something of a farewell tour for him at Liverpool.

His refusal to discuss a possible new contract after the game though perhaps indicated that his time at Liverpool might be coming to an end.

Nevertheless, Slot was adamant that his vice-captain’s future should not be the focus after he moved his side to within just one game of another league title.

“He’s incredible, if he sets his mind to it,” Slot told Sky Sports.

.

“I think if he plays for such a long time at the club, there are always moments, but every time when moments really matter - when he came in half an hour before the end at Newcastle, that’s probably the best I’ve seen him play, and then again against Paris Saint-Germain in the second half, when we really needed a goal, he stepped up

He has that, definitely.”

Asked whether he could see a way in which Alexander-Arnold stays at Anfield this summer, Slot responded: “I think my only good answer is to talk about his goal, because all the attention should go to his goal, the importance of his goal, the importance of what he did for this club for so many years in a row, and even this season - this is my only season with him - and for him to score a goal like this, all the headlines should be about him scoring, and not about his contract situation.”

“The boys deserve to have a day off, and hopefully they’re going to enjoy that, and then when we’re back together, it’s full focus on Tottenham.

“It’s a nice game to look forward to, but we have to focus on Tottenham, who we’ve already played three times this season, and every time they’ve made it a real competitive game for us, so we know what to expect, and we know we have to be ready.”
