Liverpool Captain Virgil Van Dijk will see his contract expire in June 2025. With the Dutchman being Arne Slot’s one of the most important players, the Reds have been pushed to offer him an extension by the fans over the past few months. However, no official extension hints have been given by any of the parties as of April.

The Reds who are a couple of wins away from the Premier League title have been stellar. Conceding only 11 home game goals, Van Dijk and his crew have proven their worth again. It is also clear that the Dutchman would be wanted by some of the top clubs should he part ways with the Merseyside at the end of the season.

A record-breaking achievement for @VirgilvDijk ✊🔴

200 wins in 290 games. Incredible 👏 pic.twitter.com/I1GhhiqmUs

Van Dijk has always expressed his desire for Liverpool. The Dutchman has also said he would be happy to run down his contract if needed be in the past. Arriving at Liverpool as a record signing in 2018, Van Dijo continued to be one of their most important players this season as well.

Liverpool are on course to lift what will be their second Premier League title. Van Dijk along with Mo Salah, Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold remain one of the few players from the Klopp era who will lift the trophy twice.

With the Alexander-Arnold situation being called a fumble, Liverpool will be keen to secure the future of Van Dijk at Anfield. However, given the age of the centre-back, the contract is expected to be negotiated back and forth between the sides.
