Sports Direct has declared the Premier League title race over and announced Liverpool as unofficial Champions.<\/p>\n

With 10 games to go, the retail giants wanted to be first to congratulate the Reds. The store has launched a range of unofficial Champions 25 T-shirts and replica shirts to celebrate Liverpool\u2019s triumph.<\/p>\n

A Sports Direct spokesperson said: \u201cWe wanted to be the first to congratulate Liverpool for their remarkable run this season. The launch of our unofficial champions T-shirt and printed replica shirts offers fans the chance to celebrate early, ahead of the final Premier League push.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to him, Liverpool \u2018secured\u2019 the title after their thrilling 2-0 victory over Newcastle United. The match saw Liverpool extend their lead at the top of the table, with an early goal from Dominik Szoboszlai and a 63rd-minute strike from Alexis Mac Allister.<\/p>\n

In the Midlands, Arsenal dropped points for the second time in four days, drawing 0-0 with Nottingham Forest, to effectively signal the end of their title hopes.<\/p>\n

Liverpool fans can now order a ‘Champions 25’ replica shirt. It boasts Champions and the number 25 on the back, while ‘Champions 25’ is also embroidered around the club badge.<\/p>\n

After the Newcastle game, Coach Slot was asked if he felt the title was close but said his focus was on the next game against PSG in the Champions League next week.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cI don’t know because I don’t think that way. I think about Paris Saint-Germain already. What you don’t know but what I do know, because I watched them against City, because we played City, and I’m impressed by the quality they have.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think they are in a similar run as we are hardly lost any single game for a long time. Though I’m not always correct in data because two days ago my son told me that I made a big, big, big mistake by saying Cristiano Ronaldo never played in the Premier League.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, I’m not sure if Paris Saint-Germain has the same run as ours but they are doing really well. So, my main focus is on Paris Saint-Germain.<\/p>\n

\u201cI forget the league table now, I forget the Premier League now until the moment we’ve played Paris Saint-Germain and then I will start to think about the Premier League again.\u201d<\/p>\n
