"He was really happy for me, for the players, for the staff, for the fans, like we all know Jurgen, so, yeah. Maybe I forgot a few, but I think he was the most famous," the Dutchman added.
Slot noted he received "a lot, a lot, a lot of messages" following the title win.
The Liverpool manager admitted that his affection for the club has intensified since the title victory.
When asked if his love for Liverpool had increased, Slot responded: "If that was still possible, because from the first day I'm here I feel that they support me and the team, but definitely me as well. Yeah, I think if you win something together, it always goes up a notch."

He added: "It's a game of football, but even more so if you win a trophy together, that always lifts you to a new dimension."
Slot confirmed he will make changes to his team for Liverpool's remaining four fixtures of the season.
"My line-ups will be different compared to the one we've had mostly during the last ten months as well," he explained.
The Dutchman emphasised this rotation wouldn't compromise results, adding: "We're not going to change everyone, but there will be a few players that come into the team."
"That's not to say that we're going to lose them, we have a lot of trust in the players we're going to play now as well."
Slot also shared his thoughts on Liverpool's upcoming opponents, which include Chelsea, Arsenal, Brighton and Crystal Palace.

"It's nice that we play some very strong teams so that gives an immediate challenge to those games," he said.
The manager expressed surprise at the gap between Liverpool and Chelsea, noting: "We played them earlier in the season and I am completely surprised if I look at the gap we have with them at the moment, because at that moment in time, they were the better team on the pitch."
Klopp is set to return to Liverpool on May 23 for the LFC Foundation's Annual Gala, where he will serve as an honorary ambassador and guest speaker.

Fans will hope the German stays until May 25, when Liverpool welcome Crystal Palace to Anfield and lift the Premier League trophy.
This will mark a significant occasion as it will be the first time in 35 years that Liverpool have lifted a league trophy in front of their supporters.
The club's last league trophy celebration took place during Covid at an empty Anfield in 2020.
