Mohamed Salah’s new Liverpool contract has been subject to much debate in recent weeks.

The Egyptian international is currently due to leave Anfield as a free agent at the end of this season, with Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk all heading towards leaving Liverpool for nothing if their contracts are not sorted out.

Although Alexander-Arnold looks set to join Real Madrid next summer, there’s a lot of hope surrounding Salah and Van Dijk staying at Liverpool, with the 32-year-old winger in the form of his life this season under Arne Slot.

And Liverpool could now be about to announce some big news about Salah in the next two weeks.

Salah could sign new Liverpool contract before the end of 2024

According to Marca, there is optimism at Liverpool that Salah could pen his new contract with the Reds before the end of the year, with the Anfield side having progressive talks with the winger over his future in recent weeks.

With Jamie Carragher saying Liverpool are being tight-lipped on Salah’s new contract, an announcement from the Merseyside giants could come out of the blue, a move that many supporters would appreciate greatly.

Indeed, Alisson Becker has noted how professional Salah has been whilst Liverpool contract talks have been ongoing, with the winger not letting his future get in the way of his performances both on and off the pitch.

And with Liverpool now confident that Salah will renew his contract with an announcement due before the end of the year, moving on to the next priority swiftly will be key for the Reds, with Van Dijk’s contract next up on the To Do List.

What’s the latest on Van Dijk’s contract situation at Liverpool?

With Salah’s saga coming to a close, attentions will likely focus to Van Dijk’s future, with the 33-year-old defender showing this season that he’s still one of the best centre-backs in the world after an incredible year with the Reds.

And Fabrizio Romano has reported that Liverpool have made a proposal to Van Dijk and his team, with more talks likely to take place before the Dutch international is pleased with what the Anfield side are offering him to stay.

Van Dijk signing a new contract after Salah has penned fresh terms would be huge for Liverpool, and Slot will have a strong foundation to build from heading into 2025 with two of the best players in the world in his squad.
