Virgil van Dijk has committed his future to Liverpool by signing a new contract extension that will keep him at the club until 2027.
The Dutch defender, who has been a cornerstone of Liverpool’s success since joining from Southampton in January 2018, has now extended his stay at Anfield as the Reds continue to build for the future under new manager Arne Slot.
Speaking after putting pen to paper, Van Dijk expressed his pride and excitement about continuing his journey with the club:
> “Amazing. It is something to be very proud of, that I am very proud of, that my wife and my kids are very proud of and obviously my agency. All the hard work we’ve put in so far continues and I am looking forward to what the future brings together with Liverpool. I’m delighted, very happy and proud.”
The 32-year-old has made over 300 appearances for Liverpool, playing a vital role in their Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, and FIFA Club World Cup triumphs. Known for his leadership and defensive prowess, Van Dijk currently serves as club captain and remains one of the most influential figures in the squad.
His new deal reportedly includes improved terms and reflects Liverpool’s ongoing efforts to secure the long-term futures of their key players as they prepare for the next chapter of success under Slot's leadership.
Van Dijk’s extension signals both his commitment to the club and Liverpool’s determination to maintain a solid foundation as they aim for further glory in the years to come.
