Liverpool manager Arne Slot stated that speculation around the future contracts of key players Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Virgil van Dijk has not affected his focus. Salah leads the Premier League with 44 goal contributions, aiming for the all-time single-season record. Alexander-Arnold is currently injured, missing important matches but still focusing on recovery. Liverpool maintains a strong lead, being 12 points ahead in the league with statistically high chances of winning the title, showcasing resilience even amidst contract discussions.
It's a situation that is there for eight or nine months now. These three players have performed so well under these circumstances. So no, it does not affect me at all.
His situation is that unfortunately he is injured. Otherwise, people probably would have spoken about him having one or two brilliant performances for the England team.
Liverpool are 12 points clear at the top of the Premier League, though that gap could be reduced to nine if Arsenal beat Fulham on Tuesday.
Opta's supercomputer hands Liverpool a 98.8% chance of winning the title.
