Chris Sutton has made a prediction about two Liverpool gamers which might be regarding for Reds supporters.
Kopites are on tenterhooks over the futures of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk and Mo Salah, every of whom will probably be out of contract subsequent June because it stands.
Chatting with Ian Ladyman on the Day by day Mail’s It’s All Kicking Off! podcast, the ex-Blackburn striker believes that at the very least one of many defenders may have a brand new membership by this time subsequent 12 months, and doesn’t suppose it’s unintentional that the duo are so near the top of their present offers.
Sutton stated: “Each gamers are working down their contracts for a motive. I’d be very shocked if each are at Liverpool subsequent season. In the event you’re a Liverpool fan, you’re determined to get this achieved.
“Perhaps they’re ready to see how the brand new supervisor is and their relationships and whether or not the membership can actually push once more, however that’s usually when a participant runs a contract down. We all know what’s gonna occur.”

The hypothesis over the futures of Trent, Van Dijk and Salah has been so incessant that Liverpool followers are, to make use of Sutton’s wording, determined for the membership’s hierarchy to lastly type out the trio’s contract conditions.
There’s been a college of thought that the Reds academy graduate, who turns 26 in October, will probably be prioritised over the captain (33) and winger (32).
Pragmatically that is smart, however all three gamers are nonetheless so essential to LFC that we’d like to see every of them stored on at Anfield past subsequent summer time.
