Salah’s Departure: Tracking the 13 Players Who Left Liverpool Under Slot and Their Current Status

Following the announcement that Mohamed Salah will depart Liverpool at the conclusion of the current season, attention turns to the 13 players who have left the club during Arne Slot’s tenure. This article examines their performances and situations since their exits.

Arne Slot’s Impact at Liverpool

Arne Slot took the reins at Liverpool in the summer of 2024, quickly making an impression by leading the team to a Premier League title in his inaugural season. However, his second season has seen significant changes, including the departure of key players who contributed to that success. Slot’s overhaul included high-profile signings such as Hugo Ekitike, Florian Wirtz, and Alexander Isak, but the team has struggled this season, currently sitting outside the Champions League qualification spots.

Salah’s confirmation of his exit marks a significant moment for the club, as he has openly expressed frustrations with Slot’s management. His departure adds to the list of players who have moved on during this transitional period.

Player Performances Post-Liverpool

Luis Diaz

Luis Diaz has thrived since his £33.5 million transfer to Bayern Munich last summer. Under the guidance of Vincent Kompany, the Colombian winger has showcased exceptional form, contributing 22 goals and 18 assists in 38 appearances across all competitions, far exceeding his output during his time at Liverpool.

Jarell Quansah

Jarell Quansah has also found success in Germany after leaving Liverpool. The 23-year-old defender has become a standout player for Bayer Leverkusen, making 38 appearances this season and earning his senior England debut under Thomas Tuchel. Liverpool may regret his departure, especially given their current defensive struggles.

Darwin Nunez

Darwin Nunez’s journey has been tumultuous since his £46 million transfer to Al-Hilal in the Saudi Pro League. After scoring six goals in 17 matches, he was sidelined following the arrival of Karim Benzema. Nunez now finds himself limited to Asian Champions League duties, seeking a way out of his challenging situation.

Ben Gannon Doak

Ben Gannon Doak’s move to Bournemouth has not gone as planned. The 20-year-old winger has struggled for game time, starting only once in the League Cup and totaling less than 200 minutes played this season. A long-term hamstring injury further hampered his progress.

Caoimhin Kelleher

Caoimhin Kelleher’s transfer to Brentford for £12.5 million has allowed him to showcase his talents as a starting goalkeeper. He has accumulated nearly 3,000 minutes this season, proving his worth in a competitive environment.

Trent Alexander-Arnold

Trent Alexander-Arnold’s high-profile exit to Real Madrid has been met with mixed reactions. The right-back has faced challenges, including injuries that have limited his playing time. He has managed only three assists this season, and his performances have drawn scrutiny from fans and pundits alike.

Tyler Morton

Tyler Morton has emerged as a key player for Lyon, making 37 appearances and contributing five goals. His market value has doubled since leaving Liverpool for £15 million, attracting interest from clubs like Tottenham and Nottingham Forest.

Nat Phillips

Nat Phillips, a fan favorite at Liverpool, has found a new home at West Bromwich Albion after several loan spells. The 29-year-old has been a vital part of the team’s defense, making 35 appearances in the Championship.

Harvey Elliott

Harvey Elliott’s loan to Aston Villa has not gone smoothly, as he has struggled for playing time. The midfielder has made only one appearance since the early part of the season, raising questions about his future at both clubs.

Marcelo Pitaluga

Marcelo Pitaluga returned to Fluminense after a series of unsuccessful loan spells. The Brazilian goalkeeper has yet to make an appearance for his boyhood club this season.

Fabio Carvalho

Fabio Carvalho was among the first players to leave under Slot, moving to Brentford for £27.5 million. Despite limited opportunities, he managed three goals in nine matches before suffering an ACL injury that ended his season prematurely.

Sepp van den Berg

Sepp van den Berg completed a £25 million transfer to Brentford, where he has made 32 appearances this season. His relationship with Slot, which began at PEC Zwolle, did not lead to the playing time he hoped for at Liverpool.

James Norris

James Norris was Liverpool’s only permanent exit in January, joining Shelbourne in the League of Ireland Premier Division. His move became official on January 1, 2026.

The departures of these players highlight the significant changes at Liverpool under Slot’s management. As the club navigates this transitional phase, the performances of these former Reds will be closely monitored.
