Top defender Virgil van Dijk recently shared a straightforward take on his future with Liverpool, as his contract is set to end this season. Since joining Anfield, the Dutch star has been a key player for the team, helping them maintain their position at the top of the Premier League this year. However, he’s uncertain about what lies ahead, with questions swirling about whether he’ll sign a new deal with Liverpool or explore opportunities elsewhere.

Following Liverpool's exit from the UEFA Champions League, Van Dijk admitted he’s in the dark about his future.

"I honestly have no idea right now; I really don’t know," Van Dijk said when asked if he would still be with Liverpool next season.

Even though they’ve been knocked out of the UCL, Liverpool still has plenty to compete for, as they lead the Premier League standings. Van Dijk emphasized that his attention is solely on the upcoming matches of the season.

"It’s not on hold. Nothing is on hold. There are 10 games left, and that’s where my focus is," he added.

The Dutch defender made it clear that anyone who claims to know what his future holds is not being truthful.

"If there’s any news, you’ll hear it from me. Honestly, I don’t even know what’s next for me. Sure, there are some talks happening behind the scenes, but that’s all there is to it. Right now, I can’t predict what next year will bring. If someone tells you they know, they’re just lying," he explained.

Liverpool is on track to make Slot's debut season a memorable one by clinching the Premier League title, potentially matching Manchester United's record of 20 English titles.

With just nine matches left, they hold a 15-point advantage over Arsenal, and they might secure the title before Easter.

However, the upcoming match against Newcastle, who are eager to win their first major trophy in 70 years, carries a lot more pressure.

"It's all about keeping our heads up and gearing up for the next challenge. This weekend’s match is an exciting one, so we’re ready to go again. Everyone needs to bring their A-game against a strong Newcastle team. I’m really looking forward to it," Van Dijk said ahead of the EFL Cup final.
