Liverpool is set to retain its football superstars as both Salah and Van Dijk commit to extended contracts amid fierce transfer rumors at Anfield.
Liverpool faced a major risk with key players’ deals nearing expiration, which threatened to leave the squad exposed. The club risked losing its star forward and commanding centre-back while their contracts edged toward their final months.
The Reds announced that 32-year-old Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah inked a fresh two-year deal on Friday morning. Fans learned that Salah secured his commitment without taking a pay cut. His previous contract paid him £350,000 per week, and recent reports hint that his wage may have climbed to £400,000 weekly.
At 33, the Dutch captain Virgil van Dijk will also extend his contract, signing through June 2027. Fotnet24.net confirmed that the deal received lawyer approval. This new contract bolsters the leadership of the Dutch stopper while cementing stability at the back.
Meanwhile, Trent Alexander-Arnold advanced free transfer talks with Spanish giants, suggesting a potential move to Real Madrid. Anfield supporters worry over the possible departure of their local hero as the club shifts its focus on preserving Salah and Van Dijk.
Rumors claimed that Salah took a salary cut in exchange for his contract renewal; however, dependable reports debunk these assertions. The Egyptian forward maintained his lucrative terms, a clarification that has boosted morale among fans and teammates.
Liverpool is not solely focused on contract renewals. The club recently held a meeting to pursue a £50 million-rated star from Bournemouth, and the Reds aim to complete the signing before rivals like Arsenal and Chelsea swoop in.
The confirmed extensions strengthen Liverpool’s title ambitions as the club tightens its grip on the Premier League race. Fans celebrate the renewed commitments of their stars while transfer speculations continue to heat up the market.
