Jamie Carragher, Jamie Redknapp and Les Ferdinand have all weighed in on Liverpool's contract conundrum, with three star players on expiring deals. Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold are all out of their contracts next summer. The trio have each remained coy on their futures at Anfield, with none of them yet publicly pledging their long-term allegiance to Arne Slot's project on Merseyside.

When posed with the ultimatum to choose one of the three players to stay at Liverpool, Carragher singled out Van Dijk. 'I'd probably say Van Dijk, but I'm pretty much certain Van Dijk and Salah will stay,' the Liverpool legend said. 'The one worry is Trent because of the situation he finds himself in, but I'm certain the other two will sign.'.

Since signing his first professional contract at his boyhood club in October 2015, Alexander-Arnold has put pen to paper on three contract extensions - in 2016, 2019 and 2021. Recently, he has been earmarked for a blockbuster move to Real Madrid, with contract negotiations at Liverpool stagnating as of late.

When asked about his future at the club, the 26-year-old simply insisted that the details around his contract situation will not be revealed publicly. Furthermore, Mail Sport previously reported that Liverpool have made initial contact with Salah over a new contract offer, but the Egyptian star is not thought to be close to coming to an agreement with the Reds over extending his time on Merseyside.
