Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk says he still has “no idea” whether his career at the club will extend beyond this season. The Dutch defender, 33, is out of contract this summer and talks over an extension have dragged on.

Liverpool may have led the way domestically and in Europe for much of this season but captain Virgil van Dijk knows in the final reckoning only trophies matter. This week’s Champions League last-16 exit to Paris St Germain on penalties – only a fifth defeat in 46 competitive games under Arne Slot – was a huge blow to a squad which has largely been leaving opponents trailing in their wake.
