Liverpool have \u2018started talks\u2019 with Dominik Szoboszlai over a new contract extension, reports Fabrizio Romano.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Merseysiders are understood to be very pleased with the quality of the Hungarian\u2019s performances in the 2025\/26 season.<\/p>\n

The former RB Leipzig midfielder\u2019s current terms are set to expire in the summer of 2028.<\/p>\n

Fabrizio Romano shared the update in question on X (formerly Twitter) on Friday evening.<\/p>\n

It confirms reporting on the subject already carried out by The Athletic\u2019s Gregg Evans on Thursday morning. The journalist noted \u2018preliminary discussions\u2019 had taken place over a new deal for Szoboszlai<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Italian reporter went on to add that Liverpool intend to follow up with Ryan Gravenberch (contract also expiring in 2028) to extend his stay at Anfield.<\/p>\n

With just over two and a half years left on both midfielders\u2019 deals, it\u2019s a clear sign from the club that they believe the pair have a central role to play in Liverpool\u2019s on-the-pitch success for years to come.<\/p>\n

Szoboszlai has been Liverpool\u2019s best player this season<\/p>\n

What a change in narrative following on from a summer window in which Florian Wirtz\u2019s arrival, according to some commentators, spelled doom for Liverpool\u2019s number eight.<\/p>\n

Playing against Real Madrid in the Champions League, however, Dominik Szoboszlai even outshone the German international<\/a> in what was also an impressive display from the Reds\u2019 record signing.<\/p>\n

Average statistical ratings may currently place the Hungary star third in the rankings \u2013 but in our view, the evidence of the eyes can\u2019t be denied.<\/p>\n\nPlayer<\/strong><\/td>\nAverage rating<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nRyan Gravenberch<\/td>\n7.61\/10<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nCody Gakpo<\/td>\n7.55\/10<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nDominik Szoboszlai<\/td>\n7.51\/10<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

The 25-year-old has categorically been Liverpool\u2019s standout player of the 2025\/26 season, which is high praise indeed given how much the base of the midfield has missed Ryan Gravenberch.<\/p>\n

That being said, the overall balance of the side has greatly benefited from Slot bringing Szoboszlai\u2019s stint at right-back to an end.<\/p>\n

The Dutch head coach touched on this in his pre-Man City press conference, emphasising the midfielder\u2019s \u2018off the ball\u2019 qualities in particular.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
