Official: Mo Salah and Virgil van Dijk Sign Contract Extensions with Liverpool 🔴✍️

In a massive boost to Arne Slot’s new era at Liverpool, the club has secured long-term futures for two of its greatest modern icons — Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk have officially agreed to contract extensions, ending months of speculation over their futures.

📝 Deal Done: Leadership Core Locked In

Both Salah and Van Dijk were entering the final year of their deals, prompting concerns among supporters that two of the club’s most influential figures could walk away for free in 2026.

However, Liverpool confirmed today that new agreements have been reached, with:

• Salah signing until 2027, with an option for a further year.
• Van Dijk signing a fresh three-year deal, committing until June 2028.

🗣️ Club Reaction

Speaking after the announcement, head coach Arne Slot expressed his delight:

“To have Mo and Virgil commit to this project is enormous. They are not just world-class players, but leaders. Their experience, quality, and hunger for more success will be key in this next chapter.”

🔥 What It Means for Liverpool

This double renewal marks a strategic statement from FSG and Liverpool’s new football leadership, who are prioritizing experience and continuity while building for the future.

• Salah, 32, remains Liverpool’s most consistent attacking threat, with 25+ goal contributions again last season.
• Van Dijk, 33, returned to imperious form in 2024/25 and captained the side with distinction.

With both players now staying, Liverpool’s core remains intact as young stars like Dominik Szoboszlai, Conor Bradley, and potentially Alexander Isak (pending talks) join the new wave.

🧠 Behind the Scenes

Negotiations were reportedly led by new sporting director Richard Hughes, who made securing Salah and Van Dijk’s futures a top priority before major summer additions.

With contracts resolved, Liverpool can now fully focus on incoming transfers, knowing their leadership spine is secured.

🚨 Anfield Era Recharged

For Liverpool fans, this is more than just two contracts — it’s a clear signal of ambition and continuity under the Slot era.

“We’re not done winning,” Van Dijk told LFCTV.
“There’s more history to make here.”

And with Salah’s trademark grin, he added:

“This club is my home. I’m staying to finish what we started.”
