"Gravenberch played a starring role in the Reds' title success under Arne Slot last season, missing just one league game as they cantered to glory. The Dutchman had initially struggled to break through with Jürgen Klopp at the helm after arriving from Bayern Munich in a $45.6 million deal, but his reinvention as a holding midfielder proved to be the making of Gravenberch on Merseyside."
"According to Dutch outlet De Telegraaf, Gravenberch has put pen to paper on a new contract worth $116.2 million (€100 million, £86.7 million) across the next six years, which amounts to $19.3 million (€16.6 million, £14.4 million) per annum."
"Liverpool have made it clear that they regard their No. 38 as critical to their long-term plans. Gravenberch's previous deal was due to expire in 2028, and the club were keen to avoid another protracted saga, given what they've been through with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konaté over the past 18 months."
Ryan Gravenberch committed to Liverpool with a six-year contract extension worth $116.2 million, earning approximately $19.3 million per year—more than double his previous salary. The Dutch midfielder played a crucial role in Liverpool's title success under Arne Slot last season, missing only one league game. After initially struggling under Jürgen Klopp following his $45.6 million transfer from Bayern Munich, Gravenberch thrived after being repositioned as a holding midfielder. Liverpool prioritized securing his future to avoid contract disputes similar to those with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk, and Ibrahima Konaté. The club views Gravenberch as essential to their long-term midfield plans.
