Managers who have won the Premier League in their first season

Arne Slot has become the sixth manager to win the Premier League in their first season at a club after Liverpool clinched the title at home to Tottenham Hotspur.

Premier League

Liverpool sealed their 20th league title following their scintillating 5-1 win over Tottenham on Sunday afternoon.

For Slot, it marks the culmination of a stunning debut season in English football where he has picked up the baton from Jurgen Klopp and continued the Merseyside club's trophy-winning traditions.

As well as being the first Dutch manager to win the Premier League, he joins a small group of managers who have picked up the Premier League trophy in their first season at a club.

Jose Mourinho became the first manager to achieve the feat when he guided Chelsea to the Premier League title in 2004/05, while fellow legendary manager Carlo Ancelotti replicated Mourinho at Stamford Bridge during the 2009/10 season.

Manuel Pellegrini won the Premier League in his first season at Manchester City, with Italians Claudio Ranieri and Antonio Conte also winning the title in their first campaigns at Leicester City and Chelsea respectively.
