Liverpool will aim for more trophies this season, and Mohamed Salah believes they have a player capable of leading them to victory.
Despite losing their last two games, Arne Slot’s new-look Reds are expected to fight on four fronts, with the Premier League and Champions League top priorities.
They cruised to the top division title last season and appear to be on track to defend it, despite losing late on to Crystal Palace. Arsenal, thought to be their main rivals, have also had a strong start to the season.
Slot may have splashed the dough over the summer, bringing in the likes of Alexander Isak and Florian Wirtz, but Salah believes that a long-term servant will make the difference in the hunt for silverware.
Mohamed Salah believes Virgil van Dijk will lead Liverpool to trophies.
Virgil van Dijk has been a behemoth since joining Liverpool from Southampton in January 2018, and he has more than justified his £75 million price tag.

The towering Dutchman, a natural leader, succeeded Jordan Henderson as Liverpool captain in July 2023, and Salah believes he will once again inspire the club to glory in the major tournaments.
On TikTok, DAZN Football invited numerous Reds players to choose a random teammate from a hat and predict what they will accomplish this season.
Mohamed Salah took out Van Dijk and said, “Our captain. He will most likely lead us to the Champions League and Premier League again.”
Since taking over as captain, Van Dijk has won the league title and the Carabao Cup, and he is determined to add to his trophy collection this season.
Even in light of their recent two defeats, Liverpool should never be written off, especially if Slot can find a better balance for his team after mixing up his frontline.
