Slot is currently secure in his position, but Liverpool’s poor run of form has increased scrutiny around his future. The club is prepared to take action if results fail to improve, and sources close to the situation believe Glasner is viewed as the leading candidate.
Liverpool executives are said to see similarities between Glasner and former manager Jurgen Klopp. Glasner guided Crystal Palace to their first major trophy by defeating Manchester City in the FA Cup final last season and continues to oversee strong progress at Selhurst Park. His record of over-achievement has prompted discussions about his suitability for a larger role with higher expectations.
Slot delivered the Premier League title during his first campaign but is now experiencing a challenging spell. Liverpool have secured only four wins across their last 14 matches in all competitions, including heavy home defeats to Nottingham Forest and PSV Eindhoven. Their only victory in the last five fixtures came against West Ham.
Manchester United are also evaluating Glasner as pressure increases on their current manager Ruben Amorim. United previously impressed with a three-match winning run featuring a 2-1 victory at Anfield. Recent results show only one win in their last five matches, including a draw with West Ham and a loss to ten-man Everton. Sources suggest the club may accelerate efforts to appoint Glasner, increasing the possibility of competition between Liverpool and Manchester United for his services.
