Liverpool suffered a shocking defeat to Fulham on the 6th.
Nevertheless, Liverpool, led by manager Arne Slot, is still at the top of the English Premier League (EPL). VanDijk was confident that his team could get back on its feet after the loss.

Van Dijk is a player who plays a key role in Liverpool's defense at the same time as a mental pillar. Liverpool is classified as a player who must remain in order to compete for the league title like this season.
Liverpool is preparing for a massive recruitment this summer. Van Dijk could be the core of the squad.
Most recruitment targets are young players who can see the future of the team. It is a moment when Van Dijk's leadership is essential for the harmonization of new players and existing players. For this reason, Liverpool is likely to do its best to renew the contract with Van Dijk.
