Liverpool mainstays Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk, and Mohamed Salah have been linked with moves away from the club.
Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk, and Mohamed Salah are nearing the end of their contracts, and there have been rumours that they could look to move on as free agents in 2025. However, Caught Offside have now confirmed that all three players are prioritising a contract extension with Liverpool.
The development will come as a major boost for Liverpool, and it will be interesting to see if they can keep all three players beyond this summer. They have been eager to tie the trio to new deals for a long time.
Alexander-Arnold is undoubtedly one of the best right-backs in the game, and keeping him at Anfield will help Liverpool compete at the highest level. The England international is more than just a defender, and his distribution skills have added a new dimension to the Liverpool attack.
The 25-year-old has helped carve out numerous goal scoring opportunities for his teammates, and his ability to drop into the mid field and dictate the tempo of the game makes him an invaluable option for the club. Real Madrid have been linked with the Englishman, but Liverpool cannot afford to let him leave.
Similarly, Virgil van Dijk is undoubtedly the best defender in the Premier League, and he is also the captain of the club. Liverpool cannot afford to let go of his quality and leadership skills anytime soon. He is still operating at a top-class level, and the Reds must tie him down to a new deal.
Will Salah stay at Liverpool?
Salah has started the season in fine form, and he continues to put in world-class performances week in week out. The Egyptian has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia, and it remains to be seen whether Liverpool can convince him to stay at the club. He will be able to negotiate with foreign clubs when the transfer window opens in January.
The veteran attacker has recently claimed that the club are yet to open talks with him regarding an extension, and it will be interesting to see how the situation develops. Liverpool will certainly be delighted to see that all three players are prioritising extensions over an exit, and they must act quickly and secure their long term futures.
