Slots insist they are not worried about the three-star contract. wintime999

wintime999 Liverpool boss Arne Slot insists he is not worried about the uncertainty surrounding the futures of Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold, as long as the trio continue to perform well. wintime999

All three players are out of contract at the end of the season and the departure of any one of them would leave Slot with a big void to fill in his squad.

Van Dijk, the 33-year-old captain, said he was in talks with the club but was unsure where he would play next year, with speculation linking both Alexander-Arnold, 26, and Salah, 32, with moves to the Emirates.

Players will be free to open pre-contract talks with overseas clubs from the new year, but Slot is unconcerned about the current situation as the trio have helped the season get off to a strong start.

“For me, the contract situation could become a problem if the player doesn’t perform as well as he does now,” Slot said.

“Of course it’s not certain if, if, if, but if they don’t perform well again, will it have to do with their contract situation?”

“All three of them are in a good position now, they are all doing very well and there are constant conversations, like Virgil said, with the people he needs to talk to, and that’s not me, as you know, I talk to him about other things.”

“Let’s wait and see, but what he said is true. He doesn’t know what the future holds until he renews his contract.” ( wintime999 )
