Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has insisted there is no new news about his contract renewal talks at the moment.
The Netherlands international was in action for the Reds on Tuesday night as they secured a narrow 1-0 win at Girona to maintain their 100% record in the competition. Mohamed Salah’s 63rd-minute penalty made it six victories from six in the league phase for Slot’s side who remain top of the standings.
Van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mohamed Salah are the three players whose contracts will expire at the end of the season.
Liverpool have already qualified for the knockout rounds, however, the win puts them on the brink of a definite top-eight finish. This would see Liverpool progress straight to the last 16 and bypass the play-offs.
The Reds have reportedly made their first offers to all three players, but when asked about it, the Dutch centre-back refused to answer the question after the 1-0 Champions League win over Girona on Wednesday. When asked about the progress of his contract renewal, Van Dijk replied to สมัคร ufabet: “No words.” “No words, no news.”
Van Dijk now holds the record for the most appearances in the FIFPro World XI by a Dutch player and also moved clear of Steven Gerrard (three) for most appearances by a Liverpool player.
