- Slot says focus is on getting two more wins, not contracts
Arne Slot said Liverpool’s only focus is on securing the two wins needed to secure the Premier League title, after Virgil van Dijk indicated his contract saga could be resolved this week.
The Dutchman gave Liverpool a fortunate victory against West Ham with an 89th-minute header and celebrated by kissing the badge on his shirt in front of the Kop. The captain’s goal means Liverpool require only six points from the remaining six games to seal the championship.
