Liverpool Stars Face Contract Challenges Under New Management

Senior Liverpool players, including Virgil van Dijk, Mohamed Salah, and Trent Alexander-Arnold, need to perform well in the final year of their contracts to secure future deals at Anfield. New manager Arne Slot emphasized bringing out the best in these players, while Alisson Becker declined a lucrative move to Saudi Arabia.

Senior Liverpool players in the final year of their contracts must step up their performances to secure future deals at Anfield, new manager Arne Slot stated ahead of Sunday's Premier League home game against Brentford. Key players like captain Virgil van Dijk, forward Mohamed Salah, and England international Trent Alexander-Arnold are all on deals that expire at the end of the season.

In an interview with Sky Sports, Slot highlighted his approach, saying, "The only thing I have to do - this is what I do with all of them - is to bring the best out of them. If we bring the best out of them, and they perform really well, then it's up to them if they want to sign, it's up to us (the club) if we give them a new contract."

Additionally, Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker, who has two years remaining on his contract, revealed he turned down a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia during the close-season.
