Jamie Carragher expresses greater concern about a 25-year-old leaving Liverpool as European giant publicly express their desire to acquire him than the potential departures of Virgil van Dijk or Mohamed Salah.

Jamie Carragher has advised Liverpool fans on which player they should be most concerned about leaving following Jurgen Klopp’s announcement of his impending departure.

With this revelation, uncertainty has started to surround several key players at Liverpool.

Virgil van Dijk and even Andy Robertson have been mentioned as potential departures following Jurgen Klopp’s announcement of leaving Liverpool.

However, according to Jamie Carragher, Liverpool fans should be more concerned about losing Trent Alexander-Arnold, given his contract’s 18-month timeframe.

Carragher believes that securing Alexander-Arnold should be the primary focus for Liverpool, emphasizing his importance as someone to build the team around under a new manager.

While Van Dijk and Salah may face decisions in the next 18 months due to their age, Carragher stresses the urgency of securing Alexander-Arnold’s future with the club.

Virgil van Dijk remains at the height of his abilities, and there is a possibility that he could continue to be a significant player even at the ages of 34 or 35.

However, extending his contract for a couple of additional years might also pose a risk. The same considerations apply to Salah, who is a year younger than Van Dijk.

Despite Salah’s excellent performance this season, there is an anticipated decline at some point.

With Alexander-Arnold yet to reach his peak, his potential is immense. If his contract remains unsigned by the summer, there’s a risk of other clubs expressing interest.

Liverpool cannot afford to let this happen. Alexander-Arnold possesses the talent to play for any top club globally, and if a club like Real Madrid shows interest, it could potentially sway his decision.

It’s crucial that the new manager aligns with Alexander-Arnold’s expectations, or Liverpool could face challenges.

Until the contract is signed, concerns will persist, and positive signs may not emerge until the uncertainty surrounding the club settles, possibly in the summer. An anxious period lies ahead.
