Part 4/6:
A major topic of discussion at the press conference was the future of key players such as Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Virgil Van Dijk, all of whom have contracts expiring in the summer. Klopp expressed hope that all three players would choose to extend their contracts, praising Salah as “the biggest striker Liverpool has had in modern times” and emphasizing his qualities both as a player and a human being.
Conversations around the likelihood of these players joining Klopp at Red Bull in the future were tinged with humor. Klopp playfully acknowledged that while he would love to bring them on board, he knows that financial constraints and other factors complicate the situation. He is clearly eager to see them thrive, regardless of where they choose to continue their careers.
