Liverpool manager Arne Slot parties with Wayne Lineker in Ibiza as Dutchman celebrates Premier League victory
Slot and Lineker appeared to be celebrating together at Lineker's Ibiza party hotspot O Beach, which the latter has owned since 2008.
Wayne Lineker, brother of former footballer and pundit Gary Lineker, shared a photo of the unlikely duo in a post on Instagram.
'Caption this #ynwa', said Lineker.
A second post showed a video of Slot behind the decks, as onlookers cheered and sang.
Slot was also spotted by Eastenders star Dean Gaffney, who welcomed the Liverpool gaffer with chants of 'We are the Champions!'
Slot's side were crowned Premier League champions last month when they defeated Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield, but the club still has a few games left this season.
Liverpool lost 3-1 to Chelsea and drew against Arsenal on Sunday. They now face Brighton on Monday and Crystal Palace in their final game of the season.
O Beach, formerly known as Ocean Beach, has long been frequented by celebrities including the likes of Maya Jama, Jack Grealish, Lewis Capaldi, Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, and Olly Murs.
In 2020, Love Island star Theo Campbell launched a High Court damages claim against O Beach Ibiza after a champagne cork struck him in the eye during a 'Champagne spray party'.

Ange Postecoglou gives his verdict as he is sacked by Tottenham
Ange Postecoglou says his overriding emotion is pride despite being sacked as Tottenham boss. Postecoglou masterminded the club's first trophy in 17 years when he guided Spurs to Europa League glory with a 1-0 win over Manchester United on May 21. The long-awaited silverware came amid heightened speculation over his future, following a 17th-placed Premier League finish which represents Tottenham's worst top-flight position since they were relegated in 1977. The outpouring of affection that followed from fans flipped the narrative around Postecoglou's future, with the Australian serenaded on multiple occasions at a subsequent trophy parade in front of an estimated 220,000 supporters. Further chants in support of Postecoglou came in a final-day 4-1 loss to Brighton before several Spurs players backed him to stay, but Daniel Levy has dismissed the head coach who earned him much-craved silverware. Postecoglou, via a statement from his agency CAA Base, said: 'When I reflect on my time as manager of Tottenham Hotspur my overriding emotion is one of pride. 'The opportunity to lead one of England's historic football clubs and bring back the glory it deserves will live with me for a lifetime. 'Sharing that experience with all those who truly love this club and seeing the impact it had on them is something I will never forget. 'That night in Bilbao was the culmination of two years of hard work, dedication and unwavering belief in a dream. There were many challenges to overcome and plenty of noise that comes with trying to accomplish what many said was not possible. 'We have also laid foundations that mean this club should not have to wait 17 more years for their next success. I have enormous faith in this group of players and know there is much more potential and growth in them. 'I sincerely want to thank those who are the lifeblood of the club, the supporters. I know there were some difficult times but I always felt that they wanted me to succeed and that gave me all the motivation I needed to push on. 'It's important to acknowledge the hard working people at Spurs who gave me encouragement on a daily basis. 'And finally, I want to thank those who were with me every day for the last two years. A fantastic group of young men who are now legends of this football club and the brilliant coaches who never once doubted we could do something special. 'We are forever connected. Audere est Facere. Ange.'

Tottenham sack manager Ange Postecoglou
ANGE POSTECOGLOU HAS been sacked by Tottenham despite leading the club to Europa League glory. Postecoglou delivered on his promise of 'always' winning in his second season thanks to the 1-0 victory over Manchester United in Bilbao on 21 May. It etched head coach Postecoglou's name into the history books as only the third Spurs boss to taste European success and the first in 17 years to lift silverware – provoking an outpouring of affection from a previously split fanbase. While Postecoglou divided opinion across two years in England and attracted criticism during a torrid 17th-placed Premier League campaign, his San Mames triumph appeared enough to earn him year three. Postecoglou even delivered a mic-drop moment during a euphoric open-top bus parade in front of an estimated 220,000 people when he declared 'season three is better than season two', but chairman Daniel Levy had other ideas and has dismissed the man to deliver him a much-craved trophy. 'Following a review of performances and after significant reflection, the club can announce that Ange Postecoglou has been relieved of his duties,' a club statement read. Advertisement 'We are extremely grateful to Ange for his commitment and contribution during his two years at the club. Ange will always be remembered as only the third manager in our history to deliver a European trophy, alongside legendary figures Bill Nicholson and Keith Burkinshaw. 'However, the board has unanimously concluded that it is in the best interests of the club for a change to take place.' Brentford boss Thomas Frank has been installed as the bookmakers' favourite to replace Postecoglou, who departs only 24 months into a long-term deal following a rollercoaster ride in his first Premier League role. A run of eight wins from his first 10 league fixtures – despite the high-profile departure of Harry Kane – propelled Spurs to the summit but a sign of things to come was a thrilling loss to Chelsea in November, 2023 where several injuries occurred. Fifth place in Postecoglou's debut campaign still represented an impressive finish but cracks started to emerge during a 2-0 loss at home to Manchester City where some Tottenham fans were conflicted given a positive result would have put rivals Arsenal in the driving seat for the title. Postecoglou later acknowledged that he misjudged the mood, but further run-ins would follow. A slow start to the 2024-25 campaign was followed by Postecoglou's second season trophy claim and a strong run of form as Spurs emphatically defeated Manchester United, Aston Villa and Manchester City.

Further injuries meant Postecoglou was regularly without 10 players throughout a jam-packed December and January where Tottenham lost eight of their 11 league fixtures. The Carabao Cup provided solace until a 4-0 loss at Liverpool in the last-four, which meant it was Europa League or bust for Postecoglou. A last-16 tie with AZ Alkmaar was navigated and, while Postecoglou aimed a cupped ear celebration at his own fans away to Chelsea in April, he managed to get a sinking ship back on track to knock out Eintracht Frankfurt before Bodo/Glimt were thrashed in the semi-finals after supporters' responded positively to the Australian's call-to-arms. It was then all eyes on San Mames, where Postecoglou's bold second season declaration came to fruition. Brennan Johnson's first-half goal proved the difference as Spurs clinched a narrative-busting 1-0 win but euphoric celebrations in Spain, at an open-top bus parade and during a carnival final-day atmosphere were played out against a backdrop of uncertainty over the future of Postecoglou. Even though Postecoglou expressed his desire to take Tottenham to the 'next level' and received public backing from various players, chairman Levy has focused on a worst ever Premier League finish of 17th instead of a first trophy since 2008 and dismissed the Greek-born coach.

Ireland team named for Senegal friendly, here's how we think it will shape up
There are no uncapped players in Heimir Hallgrímsson's starting-11 for Friday night's friendly against Senegal - but there is a return to the line-up for Southampton's Will Smallbone. Smallbone struggled for game-time this past season with the Saints, with just six of his 18 Premier League appearances coming as a starter. A starter in Hallgrímsson's first two games in charge - against England and Greece - this is the 25-year-old's first taste of international action since last September. He will likely be handed the support role to Adam Idah, who has claimed a starting spot ahead of Evan Ferguson and Troy Parrott. Idah finished the season at Celtic with 20 goals, a Scottish Premiership winners' medal and a Scottish Cup runners-up gong. While Parrott had an outstanding campaign for AZ Alkmaar, injury sidelined him in the final weeks, and Ferguson's woes on-loan at West Ham are well documented by now. We expect Hallgrímsson to run with a back-four - with Matt Doherty, Nathan Collins, Dara O'Shea and Robbie Brady playing in front of new Brentford goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher. Leicester City's Kasey McAteer, fresh from his first Premier League goal, scored against Ipswich Town, could flank Jason Knight and Jack Taylor, with Ryan Manning on the other side. On the bench, Shamrock Rovers' Josh Honohan, Stade Reims midfielder John Patrick, and former Drogheda United man Killian Phillips will all hope to win their first cap. Goalkeepers Max O'Leary and Josh Keeley make up the uncapped five. Ireland: Caoimhín Kelleher; Matt Doherty, Nathan Collins, Dara O'Shea, Robbie Brady; Jason Knight, Jack Taylor, Will Smallbone, Kasey McAteer, Ryan Manning; Adam Idah
