Virgil van Dijk ja Liverpool: Onko uusi sopimus jo pesukoneessa?

Arne Slot - Brentford FC - Fabio Carvalho - Liverpool FC - Martin Zubimendi - Premier League - Virgil van Dijk

Liverpoolin kapteeni Virgil van Dijk odottaa vielä uutta sopimustarjousta, mutta onko joukkueen pre-seasonin huippukunto avain menestykseen?

Liverpoolin kapteeni Virgil van Dijk on lähtenyt kesälomille sopimusneuvotteluiden kynnykselle, mutta toistaiseksi uutta sopimustarjousta ei ole kuulunut. Van Dijkin nykyinen sopimus umpeutuu kauden 2024-25 lopussa, joten seuraavat kuukausi ovat kriittisiä, mikäli Liverpool haluaa pitää hollantilaispuolustajansa riveissään. Faneilla on syytä pitää peukkuja pystyssä, sillä Van Dijk on yksi joukkueen kulmakivistä, ja hänen lähdönsä voisi olla suuri takaisku Redseille.

Jo ennen kilpailukauden alkua Liverpoolin pelaajat ovat lähdettäneet kentälle esittelemään taitojaan kahdessa ystävyysottelussa, joissa joukkue kohtasi ensin Sevillan ja myöhemmin Las Palmaksen. Liverpool voitti Sevilla 4-1, ja joukkueen nuoret tähdet, kuten Diogo Jota ja Luis Díaz, loistivat kentällä. Näiden pelien myötä joukkue on näyttänyt kykynsä toipua edellisistä haasteista ja valmistautua uusiin otteluihin varmasti kohti tulevaa kautta.

Uuden päävalmentajan, Arne Slotin, alaisuudessa Liverpool on vaihtamassa pelityyliään, ja nuori puolustaja Jarell Quansah on jo kommentoinut, että joukkue on vielä totuttelemassa uuteen pelitaktiikkaan. Fanit odottavat innolla, kuinka joukkue kehittyy ja miten Slotin visio herättää joukkueen täyteen potentiaaliin. Trendit näyttävät hyviltä, mutta onko tämä puolustava tyyli avain menestykseen ensi kaudella?

Samaan aikaan Liverpoolin pyörteissä odotetaan myös uutisia Martin Zubimendin siirrosta, joka näyttäisi olevan avainasemassa keskikentän vahvistamisessa. Zubimendi, Euro 2024 voiton myötä upeaa nousuaan tehnyt pelaaja, on Liverpoolin ykkösprioriteetti siirtoikkunan aikana. Yhdistelmä Zubimendi ja Van Dijk kentällä voisi tuoda Liverpoolille vielä enemmän varmuutta.

On hyvä muistaa, että Liverpoolin historia on täynnä upeita tarinoita ja suuria pelaajia. Esimerkiksi Liverpool on voittanut 19 Englannin mestaruutta ja kuusi mestarien liigaa, ja se on yksi maailman seuratuimmista jalkapalloseuroista. Tämän kauden aikana voimme vain toivoa, että joukkue jatkaa menestystään ja ottaa uusia askeleita voittojen tiellä.
