Liverpool’s primary issue behind closed doors right now is unquestionably the status of several important player contracts. Virgil van Dijk, Mohamed Salah, and Trent Alexander-Arnold are all in the final year of their contracts, raising serious concerns about the prospect of one or more leaving. However, there has been a favorable improvement in the contract situation.
According to James Pearce on the Walk On Podcast, Ibrahima Konate is set to sign a new deal soon, as he’s reportedly very happy at Anfield. Pearce notes that negotiations with Konate seem straightforward, with the defender eager to commit his future to Liverpool.
There’s no sign of issues with Konate’s extension,” Pearce explained. “He’s in talks with Liverpool, and I think he’s thrilled with where he’s at right now. Securing him for his prime years is an easy decision.
But what about Liverpool’s contract issues with their top three? Van Dijk recently stated that discussions are going well, and Fabrizio Romano claims that Alexander-Arnold’s priority is to stay if Liverpool can challenge for major trophies. Salah’s future remains undetermined, but Romano suggests he is comfortable at Liverpool. While the issue has caused some concern at Anfield, there is hope that Liverpool will be able to keep these vital players.
