Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has signed a new two-year contract that has now put an end to the questions about his future after months of speculation.

The 33-year-old Dutch centre-back had been inside the final season of his previous deal, which was due to expire in the summer of 2025.

But he has now penned a seven years extension
after arriving from Southampton in a $95m (£75m/€90m) switch.

Van Dijk, who was named Liverpool captain when Jordan Henderson moved to Saudi Arabia in 2023, has played almost 300 games for the Reds.

He has already won the Premier League and the Champions League.

“There wasn’t any doubt in my head that this is the place to be for me and my family. I’m of Liverpool. Someone called me the other day an adopted Scouser – I’m really proud to hear these things, it gives me a great feeling.”

“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. I feel very good, physically, mentally and I am having fun.

“Discussions are ongoing with the right people and when it’s time to make a decision or whatever, I think you guys [the media] will know it as well. But now full commitment and focus is on Liverpool and to be successful this season. So we will see.”
