Liverpool increasingly confident over Mohamed Salah contract extension
Progress made in talks over deal for Egyptian forwardVan Dijk also likely to remain at Anfield past this season
Liverpool are increasingly confident Mohamed Salah will sign a contract extension to stay beyond the summer after progress in talks over recent weeks. It is a significant boost to Liverpool, whose captain, Virgil van Dijk, is also likely to prolong his stay beyond June. The Dutchman said this week that progress had been made with regards to securing his future.
The two players have been instrumental for Liverpool this season, with the club closing in on a record-equalling 20th top-division title. They have been ever-present in the Premier League under Arne Slot. Salah has scored 27 goals in 31 appearances and Van Dijk has helped Liverpool concede only 30 to put them top, 11 points clear of Arsenal with seven games to play.
