Virgil van Dijk has revealed he is in “discussions with the right people” over his Liverpool future as the club captain moves into the final months of his contract.
Van Dijk is one of a number of high-profile Liverpool players whose deals expire next summer. There is also uncertainty surrounding the futures of Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
As it stands, the trio will be able to discuss pre-contract terms with overseas clubs from January, but Van Dijk has said he is in talks over extending his stay at Anfield.
“I can say obviously discussions are ongoing, but I don’t know, we will see what happens in the future,” Van Dijk said. “My full focus is on Liverpool, wanting to win games that are ahead of me and nothing else.
“What the future will bring I have no idea at the moment. I can only tell you that discussions have been started up and we will see.”
Van Dijk, who joined Liverpool in 2018, turned 33 in July. He remains a key part of a defence that has kept five clean sheets in eight Premier League games so far this season.
