Liverpool still have significant progress to make in contract negotiations with Mo Salah, Virgil van Dijk, and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Despite this, there is growing optimism that Salah and Van Dijk will likely commit to new deals at Anfield. If confirmed, it would be a huge boost for Liverpool, given the stellar performances both players have delivered this season.
Sofascore’s player ratings highlight Salah’s exceptional form, ranking him second among all Premier League players for the 2024/25 season with an impressive score of 7.94/10.
Van Dijk, meanwhile, is ranked 26th with a rating of 7.24/10. However, this assessment has sparked debate, as players like Nathan Collins and Pedro Porro are rated higher, raising questions about the scoring system.
Interestingly, some fans suspect Liverpool may be preparing to make an announcement based on recent activity on the club’s X (formerly Twitter) account.
Observant users noted the account sharing a thread of Salah’s hat-tricks and removing their pinned tweet, leaving the space empty.
While this timing has raised eyebrows, it could simply be coincidental. David Ornstein has confirmed that Salah has received an initial contract proposal, but a final agreement appears to be far from imminent.
That said, fans remain hopeful for positive news, even if no immediate announcements are expected. Of course, many would be delighted to be proven wrong if a deal for Salah’s extension is closer than anticipated!
