LONDON (ENGLAND) (ITALPRESS) – With Liverpool since 2018, wearing the captain’s armband and serving as an Anfield icon, 35-year-old Virgil van Dijk is a symbol of the “Reds”—yet his contract is expiring, and his future remains uncertain. “Let’s see what the season brings. It’s been an extraordinary experience at this club so far. If there’s an extension, great; if not, I’ll move on elsewhere,” the Reds’ captain said, as reported by BBC Sport.

Liverpool is keen to avoid repeating the mistake made with Salah (who could leave on a free transfer), while also wishing to respect the wishes of a champion who has contributed so much to the club.

Starting in January, Van Dijk will be free to sign a pre-contract agreement with a foreign club; according to BBC Sport, both AC Milan and Juventus are monitoring the situation.

There is also interest from Turkish clubs, but Liverpool is prepared to open renewal negotiations, aiming to extend the long-standing partnership with the Dutch central defender.
