Mo Salah has taken to social media with a new post amid a dramatic new update on his contract situation at Liverpool.

The Egypt international has been in spectacular form for the Reds this season, proving key in driving his side to the Premier League title.

That has however also led to some concern at Anfield, given his current contract on Merseyside is due to expire this summer, opening the door for him to leave the club on a free transfer.

It looks as though Liverpool are set to lose one key player in Trent Alexander-Arnold to such a scenario, although they may avoid a repeat of that with two other keys players.

Mo Salah and Virgil van Dijk set for new contracts

There has been plenty of speculation about whether Salah and Virgil van Dijk will sign new contracts with Liverpool before their current deals expire at the end of this season.

It now appears as though that will indeed be the case, with a report from The Athletic stating that both Salah and Van Dijk have made a brakthrough in negotiations over their deals.

As a result, the pair are now expected to sign new deals with the club that will secure their futures at Anfield until the end of the 2026/27 campaign.

In the wake of those reports, Salah has taken to his Instagram story to post a series of pictures of him enjoying life around the Liverpool training ground.

The fact that post has been uploaded around the time this report of a new contract has emerged is something supporters may well take as a further hint that the 32-year-old is indeed set to extend his deal.

Liverpool fans to delight over new contract updates

Football Insider Verdict

This latest news about contract extensions for Salah and Van Dijk is going to be a huge relief for everyone connected to the club.

Salah in particular has been in absolutely sensational form for Liverpool throughout much of the season, so keeping him is key as they look to build on that in the 2025/26 campaign.

Beyond that, losing him and Van Dijk on a free would also have made it much harder to replace the duo, something it now seems they will not have to worry about.

There is a good chance this will also provide another big lift to the mood around Liverpool, which could drive them on to get over the line in the Premier League title race after some disappointing recent results.
