A number of Liverpool players are facing an uncertain future at the club because of their contract situation.

Trent Alexander-Arnold, Mohamed Salah and Virgil Van Dijk have all entered the final year of their contract at Anfield and nothing has been decided about their future.

There is currently no update about their contract extension and as it stands, they all could leave the club this summer.

The Reds would want to avoid a situation like that, losing all their key players at the same time.

However, club legend Mark Lawrenson feels that right-back Alexander-Arnold has made up his mind to leave the club at the end of the season.

Lawrenson showered praise at the England international and his ability to do what other defenders cannot do, but he also warned Liverpool that if the player wanted to stay, he would have signed a new contract by now.

The club legend has tipped the Liverpool fan favourite to leave the club to join Real Madrid at the end of the season, where he could get the chance to play with his friend Jude Bellingham.

“I think Trent Alexander-Arnold is most definitely up there with the best Premier League right backs of all time when he’s in full flow,” he told Sports Casino, as quoted by DAZN.

“I don’t think I’ve ever seen a better right back in terms of delivering the ball to players. He probably isn’t among the best defenders in the world, but it doesn’t really matter because he just sees passes that other players can’t – that ball into Mohamed Salah in the first game of the season against Ipswich was unbelievable.
