Liverpool manager Arne Slot has hailed the recent contract extensions of captain Virgil van Dijk and leading scorer Mohamed Salah, acknowledging it as a "big summer" for the club, although the future of Trent Alexander-Arnold remains unclear. Alexander-Arnold is reportedly wanted by Real Madrid, who are "in need of refreshing" following their early exit from the Champions League and uncertainty surrounding head coach Carlo Ancelotti. Alexander-Arnold could return to the Liverpool squad for Sunday's league game against Leicester City after over five weeks out with an ankle injury. Liverpool, 13 points clear at the top of the Premier League, are on course to win the title in Slot's first season. Slot praised van Dijk's leadership and the quality of both players, highlighting their importance to the team.
