Arne Slot prioritizes new contracts for Virgil van Dijk, Mo Salah, and Trent Alexander-Arnold, aiming to secure their futures at Liverpool and calm fans.
Slot Approves Of Extending Contracts Of Salah, Trent And Van Dijk
Liverpool’s new head coach, Arne Slot, has reportedly approved contract extensions for three key players Virgil van Dijk, Mo Salah, and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Despite the lack of significant incoming transfers this summer and uncertainties regarding the trio’s futures, the Reds are prioritizing securing these extensions.
While none of the players have finalized agreements yet, it’s believed they prefer to stay at Anfield, which would be a significant boost for the club and its fans.
Interest From Other Clubs
Van Dijk and Salah have attracted interest from the Saudi Pro League, and Real Madrid continues to admire Alexander-Arnold.
However, Real Madrid isn’t planning an offer this month, instead waiting for a potential free transfer next year.
The main complication for Liverpool could be if a rival Premier League club offers a better deal than what Liverpool presents.
Slot’s clear intention to retain all three players and their inclination to stay offers encouragement that they will commit to Liverpool for a few more years.
Reds’ Legend
Salah, despite a dip in form towards the end of last season, remains Liverpool’s top scorer and looks ready for another prolific year.
Van Dijk’s leadership on the field is crucial for the new head coach, and Alexander-Arnold, now in his prime, is expected to be a significant presence both in training and on matchday.
While new signings would still bolster the squad, securing these contract extensions would bring a similar level of enthusiasm and relief to Liverpool supporters.
