The Reds, who were just denied the title last season, suffered in the early going this year as draws against Fulham and Crystal Palace were exacerbated by Monday's humiliating loss at rivals Manchester United, according to DPA.
The forward, who was named the FWA Footballer of the Year and the PFA Players' Player of the Year for 2021-22 after helping Juergen Klopp's side to a domestic cup double, has now committed his future to the Reds.
The 36-year-old's previous deal was due to expire at the end of this month and the midfielder had external offers from one Premier League club and two from overseas but he chose to remain with Liverpool.
But Klopp is waiting to find out the extent of injuries to top-scorer Salah and defensive talisman Van Dijk, who were both forced off at Wembley on Saturday.
Liverpool FC owner John W Henry said that the success with the club has been the best moment of his career, despite his multiple achievements elsewhere.
Jurgen Klopp's comments came after he was awarded the League Managers’ Association’s (LMA) Manager of the Year Award for the 2019-20 season.
Klopp also spoke highly of Ferguson after receiving the award, which is now named after the legendary United manager.
Under the tutelage of Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool have won everything that and English club aspire to, except the FA Cup, in a span of little over a year.
The right-back left-back duo of Alexander-Arnold and Robertson have been instrumental to Liverpool's success in the last 14 months or so.
