Liverpool make Van Dijk and Alexander-Arnold offers amid ‘UNCLEAR’ future

Liverpool have taken steps towards securing the future of Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold, David Ornstein has reported, with an offer for Mohamed Salah expected to follow soon.

Liverpool are in the unsettling position of losing three of their biggest stars as free agents in the summer, with the trio of Van Dijk, Alexander-Arnold and Salah all out of contract at the end of June 2025.

FootballTransfers, in conjunction with AnfieldWatch, have reported that a deal for Van Dijk is all but completed.

There has been more concern over the future of Alexander-Arnold and Salah, however.

The right-back has been heavily linked with a switch to Real Madrid, who are eager to bolster that area of the side following a serious injury to Dani Carvajal. With Trent available for nothing, he is seen as an attractive option for the Bernabeu side, particularly with his good friend Jude Bellingham starring in the Spanish capital.

Mo Salah, meanwhile, continues to be heavily linked with a move to the Saudi Pro League as well as PSG.

Speaking to the media, Salah dropped a bombshell in November as he said: “We are almost in December and I haven’t received any offers yet to stay in the club. I’m probably more out than in.

“You know I have been in the club for many years. There is no club like this. But in the end it is not in my hands. As I said before, it is December and I haven’t received anything yet about my future.

“I love the fans. The fans love me. In the end it is not in my hands or the fans’ hands. Let’s wait and see.”

Liverpool contract situation clarified

Liverpool are making solid progress to retaining Van Dijk, Alexander-Arnold and Salah, with contract offers tabled for Netherlands and England internationals, The Athletic reports.

It is reported that talks with Van Dijk have been going on for a prolonged period and is still progressing.

For Alexander-Arnold, meanwhile, the Reds have been warned that it is “unclear” how the talks will concluded.

No offer has been made to Salah yet, as the attacker suggested, but it is believed that Liverpool will soon make him an offer.
