Pep Guardiola said he cannot guarantee Manchester City will be back challenging for the Premier League title next season.
Liverpool boss Arne Slot has warned excessive transfer fees could prevent him from signing a tailor-made replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Mikel Arteta has urged Arsenal to use the frustration of having to give champions Liverpool a guard of honour on Sunday as fuel to win the Premier League title next season after admitting they have gone "backwards" this term.
Mohamed Salah won the Football Writers' Association Player of the Year award for the third time on Friday after inspiring Liverpool's march to a record-equalling 20th English title.
Alexander-Arnold's future has been the subject of intense speculation this season, with the defender widely tipped to join Spanish giants Real Madrid after helping Liverpool win this season's Premier League.
The Dutchman said he was surprised by the 22-point between his side and Enzo Maresca's Chelsea, whom he felt were the better team when they met in October, even though Liverpool won 2-1.

Mohamed Salah labelled Liverpool's record-equalling 20th English title as "way better" than their previous Premier League triumph five years ago after the Reds crushed Tottenham 5-1 to seal the crown on Sunday.
