Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk is reportedly in talks to leave Anfield in the summer.
On Saturday afternoon, Van Dijk captained the Reds to a vital 2-0 win over Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium, thanks to two late goals from under-fire striker Darwin Nunez.
As a result, Liverpool now hold a six-point lead at the top of the Premier League table, with Arsenal slipping up against Aston Villa at home.
Despite the promising start to life under new boss Arne Slot, Liverpool fans are becoming increasingly worried about some of their players' contract situations.

Van Dijk, along with Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold are all in the last few months of their deals and as things stand, will walk away for free in the summer.
Now, it has been claimed that Van Dijk's representatives have met with a club president over a potential transfer.
Virgil van Dijk's agent reportedly held meeting with club president
As reported by The Mirror, the Dutchman's agent met with Saudi Prio League side Al Hilal's president, Fahad bin Nafel, in London.

The report stated: "Middle Eastern journalists are able to speculate that Van Dijk is considering a move to Al-Hilal this summer.
"Al-Hilal reportedly want him through the door in time for the Club World Cup in America. It seems like wishful thinking on their behalf, given Van Dijk is currently captain of a club pushing for the Premier League title."
Meanwhile, Salah has also been linked with a big-money move to the Middle East and Alexander-Arnold is being fiercely targeted by Spanish La Liga giants Real Madrid.
What has Virgil van Dijk said about his future?
Speaking about his future last month, Van Dijk said: "I love the club, the club loves me.

"I love the fans, the fans love me and it is a very good foundation to be successful. In my opinion I can play for another three, four years at least at the highest level. We will see what the future brings."
Liverpool will return to action on Tuesday night when they take on French side Lille in the UEFA Champions League.
