Virgil van Dijk was once again quizzed about his contract situation following Liverpool’s 2-2 draw at Arsenal on Sunday.
The Dutch defender scored as the Reds twice came from behind to snatch a point at the Emirates Stadium; a result that leaves them just a point behind Premier League leaders Manchester City.
It’s a very tough place to come, teams have noticed that over the years,” Van Dijk said after the match.
They have created a solid team and make it difficult for everyone. To come back twice is a good thing, we take the point — that’s the feeling.”It’s no surprise to see Van Dijk step up in a big moment for the Reds.
The 33-year-old has been a stalwart for Liverpool since joining from Southampton in January 2018, helping the club win Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and EFL Cup titles among other honours.
However, Van Dijk is in the final year of his contract, raising serious doubts regarding his future at Anfield, which is also the case for Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
