Liverpool boss Arne Slot admitted on Friday that he knew for a while that Mohamed Salah's contract talks were heading in the "right direction."

The Liverpool manager spoke openly about the team's chances of winning silverware in the next few years. Suddenly, that has gone from possible to probable following this week's news.

Arne Slot has provided an update on the contract situation of Trent Alexander-Arnold after the club tied down Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk to new deals. Liverpool have been pushing to renew Alexander-Arnold’s contract all season with the 26-year-old’s current deal expiring in the summer.
