Former Manchester United star Jaap Stam
Former Manchester United star Jaap Stam believes Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk needs to be given a new contract. The Netherlands international is in the final year of his deal at Anfield, and could be leaving the Merseysiders at the end of the current campaign.
Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold's agreements will also expire in the summer of 2025. Claiming that the former Southampton defender deserves at least another year's contract, Stam told Sport Lens (via GOAL):
"I think he deserves a new contract and a new deal, maybe only for one season, and then you see where you go from there. You have to look at who would replace him in the transfer market or the academy but that’s extremely hard to do."
