Graeme Souness recently expressed his apprehensions about Liverpool’s future, particularly focusing on the status of Virgil van Dijk amid ongoing managerial changes. Souness suggested that Liverpool’s captain might be contemplating a departure, especially given the uncertainties surrounding the club’s leadership.

“The fact that Virgil van Dijk’s contract end is coming up worries me… I just look at him now and the noise he’s been making, which he hasn’t done throughout his career, and I think he’s obviously unhappy,” remarked Souness. Van Dijk’s contract expires next summer, and his remarks about waiting to see Liverpool’s new manager before deciding on his future have fueled speculation about his intentions. Souness also expressed concerns about Mohamed Salah’s situation, noting worries about the forward’s demeanor and recent on-field clash with Klopp.

He questioned whether a potential early-season agreement, akin to Cristiano Ronaldo’s move to Real Madrid, could explain Salah’s behavior and potential exit. The uncertainties surrounding key players like Van Dijk and Salah add further complexity to Liverpool’s managerial transition, raising questions about the club’s direction and character.
