The ongoing uncertainty surrounding Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk’s contracts at Liverpool continues to make headlines.
Both players are approaching the end of their current deals, leaving fans anxious to know whether they’ll remain at Anfield.
Virgil van Dijk has provided some reassurance, revealing that contract talks are ongoing and progressing well, as reported by The Sun.
However, Salah’s situation appears more complicated. Reports indicate that negotiations have not moved forward significantly, with rumors suggesting potential moves to clubs in Saudi Arabia.
Despite this, Sky Switzerland’s Sacha Tavolieri reports that Salah is willing to stay at Liverpool if offered a longer-term deal with a pay cut.
Initially, Liverpool’s owners had decided not to renew Salah’s contract, but recent developments at the club have prompted them to reconsider their stance.
Salah has been pivotal to Liverpool’s title push this season, continuing to prove his world-class status. In 31 Premier League appearances, he’s scored 27 goals and provided 17 assists, showcasing exceptional productivity across Europe’s top leagues.
For Liverpool, keeping both Van Dijk and Salah should be a top priority.
While Van Dijk’s leadership at the back and Salah’s attacking brilliance have been key to their success, it seems likely that Trent Alexander-Arnold will move to Real Madrid this summer.
Additionally, Liverpool is reportedly interested in Lille striker Jonathan David, who will become a free agent at the season’s end, as they look to replace Darwin Nunez, who has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia.
