Virgil van Dijk addresses the ongoing contract talks and potential move to Bayern Munich.

The Dutch defender, who has recently been associated with a potential move to Bayern Munich as they seek to rejuvenate their squad, provided an update on his contract situation. With his current deal set to expire at the end of next season, there has been keen interest in his future plans.

Speaking to the media Van Dijk said: “I think there is nothing for me to discuss because there is no news, I think the club is very much busy with who is going to be the new manager and that is the main focus.

“Like I said I am very happy here, I love the club and you can see that as well. It’s a big part of my life already, and that is all I can say.

“The focus is now on the last two and then the club will focus on who the new manager is and there will be a big transition and I am part of that.”

Having established himself as one of the world’s premier central defenders since joining Liverpool from Southampton in 2018, Van Dijk’s future has garnered significant attention, especially with the impending departure of Jurgen Klopp. Rumors have also linked him with clubs in the Saudi Pro League.

While it appears unlikely that Van Dijk will depart Liverpool this summer, particularly as the club transitions to a new manager in Arne Slot, his contract situation remains unresolved. Failure to reach an agreement could potentially see him leave on a free transfer in 2025.
