When Mohamed Salah’s contract extension was announced just an hour before Arne Slot’s pre-match press conference, the Egyptian was understandably the talk of the Liverpool head coach’s media briefing.
Should Arsenal lose to Ipswich Town on Sunday, the Reds will be crowned champions if they beat Leicester City in the later kick-off.
It was telling just how full the AXA Training Centre media room was on Good Friday as the title-races nears its conclusion.
It will have not been so busy since Jurgen Klopp's final media briefing last May.
And from the moment it opened its doors at 8.30am too, no less, with the majority of journalists arriving early courtesy of the quieter Bank Holiday roads.
But Leicester is just another game for Slot.
Publicly, at least, he is not concerning himself with Arsenal or entertaining thoughts about winning the title just yet.
“My thoughts are not on that at all,” he insisted.
“One game at a time and influence the one we can influence, and that’s the Leicester game.
“The honest answer is no (I’m not thinking about winning the title)
“That is also so difficult in football, people constantly tell you, ‘Try to enjoy it, try to enjoy the whole journey,’ but the only thing you are thinking about as a manager is, ‘Oh, at the weekend there is a game coming up as well and we need to win that and we need to win the next and we need to win the next.’
“So, maybe that’s one of the reasons: because I’m already so long in football that you get used to the fact of living day by day and trying to influence day by day.”
Slot might insist he is not thinking about winning the Premier League title, but that moment is getting closer and closer
