Danny Murphy says Virgil van Dijk acknowledges that Liverpool “sounds a bit stupid.”
As things currently stand, both Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah are set to become free agents in 2025, but they are expected to stay at Liverpool for the 2024/25 season. Van Dijk recently hinte strongly that he plans to extend his stay with the Reds beyond his current contract, emphasizing his commitment to the club and his role in its transition. Liverpool.com suggests that instead of prioritizing one player over the other, it would be ideal for the club to secure contract extensions for both Van Dijk and Salah. The focus now shifts to the terms and duration of these potential extensions. Additionally, there’s attention on Trent Alexander-Arnold, who, being younger, should also be a priority for a new deal to demonstrate the club’s appreciation for his loyalty and contributions. Alexander-Arnold’s role under the new manager, Arne Slot, is also a consideration, with potential decisions regarding his position on the field.
