In a shocking twist to the aftermath of the announcement of Jurgen Klopp departing from Liverpool at the end of the season, the Anfield faithful are now faced with the looming prospect of three key stars exiting the club as well.
The contracts of Virgil van Dijk, Mohamed Salah, and Trent Alexander-Arnold are all set to expire in 2025, casting a cloud of uncertainty over their future at Liverpool.
Three Liverpool players set to depart Anfield with Klopp?
These three players, who have blossomed into superstars under Klopp’s guidance, could be at the end of their tenure at Anfield, marking the close of an era for the Reds.
The news comes amidst swirling speculation, particularly around Salah, who has reportedly caught the eye of the Saudi Pro League, eager to lure him to the Gulf state.
Van Dijk, a cornerstone of Liverpool’s success since Klopp signed him in 2018 for a then-world record fee for a defender (£75 million), and Alexander-Arnold, the local lad who rose through the academy ranks, could be on the brink of departure.
Alexander-Arnold, in particular, has only known Klopp as his manager at Anfield, shaping him into one of the world’s best right-backs.
While the trio still has a year left on their contracts after this season, the absence of any signs of renewal raises questions about their long-term commitment to Liverpool.
If they do decide to part ways with the club, it signifies the dawn of a new era and the departure of pivotal players who have formed the spine of Liverpool’s success in recent years.
