Slot, who led Liverpool to the Premier League title last season, has come under pressure during his second campaign, with the Reds set to end the season without a trophy and well off the pace set by Arsenal and Manchester City.
But speaking on Monday Night Football, Carragher said: "Arne Slot's job has been spoken about all season. We've spoken about it a lot on Monday Night Football.
"There's probably a split in the Liverpool supporters over whether he should stay or go, but the noises I am hearing is Slot will be the Liverpool manager next season if they can secure Champions League qualification, which they look like doing right now."
Sky Sports News understands that is the case after a season of increasing speculation over Slot's future, as a transitional season at Anfield has borne frustrations on and off the pitch.
Slot is set to retain the support of the hierarchy ahead of a summer in which more work is expected to be done to the squad following the announcement Mo Salah will be leaving.
RB Leipzig's Yan Diomande is among their top targets for a new forward while several other positions are also being looked at.
