Van Dijk Extends Stay at Liverpool
The club officially announced Thursday afternoon that Virgil van Dijk has signed a contract extension. The 33-year-old Dutch defender, whose previous contract was nearing its end, has committed to stay with Liverpool for at least two more seasons.
Van Dijk’s extension is a notable boost for Liverpool.He has been a cornerstone of the team as his arrival from Southampton in January 2018 for a reported 85 million euros. That figure has proven to be a worthwhile investment as Van Dijk quickly became a pivotal player and leader for the Reds, helping them secure both a Premier League title and a Champions League trophy.
With Salah and Van Dijk now secured, attention turns to Trent Alexander-Arnold, whose contract situation remains unresolved. Speculation suggests a potential move to Real Madrid for the academy graduate.
