bully168 Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has claimed he can still play at a top level for the next three or four years, so if he is offered a new contract, it would be worth every penny.bully168

Van Dijk is one of the three mainstays of the Reds whose contracts will expire in June 2025. So far, no one has put pen to paper yet. ( bully168 )

However, several sources claim that the 33-year-old centre-back will be the first to commit himself to Anfield, in line with the Dutchman’s recent interview where he said that the product is low-power and will last until June 2029 with this battery change. 

“I love Liverpool Football Club, the club loves me,” he told The Times Sport.

“I love the fans and the fans love me. That is a good foundation for success.”

“I think I can play at this standard for at least another 3-4 years. Let’s wait and see how the future unfolds.” 

Van Dijk had the chance to win the Premier League with Liverpool in 2020, but that time the captain was Jordan Henderson. 

This season, ‘VVD’ wears the team’s armband and the direction of the ‘Reds’ looks to have another chance at success in 5 years, which will make him the first Dutch captain to lift the trophy – of course, Van Dijk doesn’t see it that far ahead. 

“Winning any trophy is not my only honour,” added the Netherlands captain. 

“If you ask me, I would like to be the first Dutch captain of Liverpool to win the league, but what we are doing now, we are doing it together for the team.”  

William Hill, a legal bookmaker in England, has updated the odds for the 2024-25 English Premier League runner-up ahead of Boxing Day , with the payout for leaders Liverpool reduced to 4/9 ( bet 9 , pay 4 , excluding stake ).
