Virgil van Dijk: There is no deadline regarding Liverpool contract negotiations

Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk insists there is “no deadline” regarding his contract situation.

The Netherlands international’s current deal expires in the summer and from next week he would be able to negotiate with overseas clubs about moving at the end of the season.

However, it is understood the 33-year-old’s preference is to stay at Anfield and the player himself is just concentrating on a campaign which has them top of the Premier League and Champions League tables.

“There is no deadline at all. We will see what the future brings. Is there an update? No,” he told reporters after the 6-3 win over Tottenham.
