Liverpool legend Dirk Kuyt has made a heartfelt plea to the club to put an end to the uncertainty surrounding the futures of Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk by securing new contracts for the dynamic duo.
As the expiration date of their current contracts draws near, fans are growing anxious about the possibility of losing two key players for free this summer, despite assurances behind the scenes that extensions are on the horizon.
Both Salah and Van Dijk have publicly expressed uncertainty about their futures, but Kuyt believes that Liverpool should act decisively to secure their long-term commitment.
“Virgil is a true leader on and off the pitch, performing at the peak of his powers,” Kuyt shared with The Athletic. “His resilience after a serious injury has been remarkable, and his impact on the team is undeniable.”
“Despite approaching his mid-thirties, Virgil continues to excel, much like Mo, who is also defying age with his exceptional talent. Liverpool fans everywhere hope to see these stars commit their future to the club soon, solidifying their status among the elite.”
Negotiations are ongoing with Salah and Van Dijk, but concerns loom large over Trent Alexander-Arnold, who allegedly turned down a contract offer to pursue a move to Real Madrid on a free transfer.
