Alisson Becker and Virgil van Dijk have been the backbone of Liverpool's success in recent years, but Andoni Iraola and Liverpool's hierarchy cannot afford to get complacent…
Ian Doyle argues that Liverpool must prepare for the departures of Virgil van Dijk and Alisson Becker as both approach the end of their contracts. Recent performances, including errors during a 3-2 Champions League loss to Fenerbahce, highlight that the 35-year-old defender and 34-year-old goalkeeper are moving past their physical peaks under manager Andoni Iraola.
Liverpool have reportedly taken steps to future-proof their squad with signings like Jeremy Jacquet, Giovanni Leoni, and Giorgi Mamardashvili. Doyle notes that while both veterans remain key leaders, the club faces a delicate transition in managing the inevitable end of their Anfield careers.
