Both Virgil van Dijk and Mo Salah have just a number of months remaining on their respective Liverpool deals and the two stars appear to be in very different situations at Anfield

Liverpool have made a contract offer to Virgil van Dijk as they attempt to end uncertainty over his future by tying the Netherlands defender to a new agreement. Van Dijk is among three crucial players — alongside Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold — whose existing terms are scheduled to expire in the summer.

The report from The Athletic journalist David Ornstein states that Liverpool have offered a new contract to Van Dijk, with the Dutchman's current deal set to run out in the summer. An opening proposal was presented to the collossus centre-back some time ago - though there has been no breakthrough yet on the value of the deal or its length.
