The celebrations are only just beginning after Liverpool officially became the Premier League champions on Sunday, but as one title race comes to a close, the countdown begins for the start of the next title race.

Arne Slot says he knew “for a long time” that Liverpool were going to win the Premier League title this season. The Reds beat Tottenham on Sunday to wrap up a 20th English league title with four games to spare, ending Manchester City 's run of four in a row and forcing Arsenal to again finish as runners-up.

Liverpool sealed their 20th Premier League title on Saturday - an important number in English football's historic battle for supremacy.
