Liverpool are performing well on the pitch, but uncertainty looms off it with key players’ futures still undecided. Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Virgil Van Dijk are in the final year of their contracts, leaving their future at Anfield unclear.
Under Arne Slot’s leadership, these players have helped guide Liverpool to the top of the Premier League, earning 15 points from their first six matches. However, rumors linking some players to moves away from the club are likely concerning for the Dutch manager.
Real Madrid’s interest in Alexander-Arnold has been well-documented, and Bayern Munich is now reportedly eyeing Brazilian goalkeeper Alisson as a replacement for Manuel Neuer. Despite this, Alisson recently reassured fans of his commitment to Liverpool.
In an interview with former goalkeeper Joe Hart for BBC Match of the Day, Alisson dismissed speculation about his future, saying, “I’m committed to this club, 100%, and that involves being part of this leadership group.”
Alisson, who had been linked to a move to Saudi Arabia over the summer, ultimately chose to stay at Liverpool, which has proven beneficial for his career.
While Alisson is under contract until 2027, Liverpool faces concerns over the contracts of Salah, Alexander-Arnold, and Van Dijk, as all three could negotiate pre-contract agreements with other clubs in January.
Alisson’s commitment is a relief for Liverpool fans, who hope the experienced goalkeeper will play a key role during the club’s transition under Slot.
