Apart from the recognition for their brilliant form this season, most of the conversation around Liverpool this season is about the contract situation of their players.
The Reds are currently involved in contract talks with three of their most important players; Mohamed Salah, Virgil Van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
All have entered the final year of their contracts at the club and their long-term futures at Anfield remain unresolved.
The Egyptian striker has been in the form of his life this season and it wouldn’t be wrong to say that he is currently the best player in the world.
His impressive performances have taken the Reds to the top of the Premier League and Champions League.
Now a latest update has emerged which will change the mood of Liverpool fans and give them hope that their favorites will stay at the club.
according to Football InsiderSalah is likely to sign a new contract with Liverpool after positive talks with the club.
The report also mentions Van Dijk, along with Salah, as the player who is close to agreeing a new deal with the Premier League leaders.
Alexander-Arnold’s future is still uncertain in the middle reports a possible transfer to Real Madrid at the end of the season.
Salah and Van Dijk have been the stars of Arne Slot’s side this season and have shown that, despite being over 30 years old, both are two of the best players in the world in their positions.
Arne Slot would be happy to keep Salah and Van Dijk at Liverpool
The breakthrough in talks is a huge boost for Slot, who would like to keep both players at his side and hopes they will continue to be part of his Anfield project.
Since Jurgen Klopp’s successful days at Liverpool, Salah and Van Dijk have been the mainstays of the team and have taken a leadership role at Anfield.
Losing both for free would have been catastrophic for the club, but they now hope to keep them.
Alexander-Arnold’s contract situation at the club just needs to be sorted out now and given Real Madrid’s genuine interest in his services, it will be the toughest job for Liverpool’s management.
