Joe Gomez - Signs fresh contract with Liverpool Gomez signed a contract extension with Liverpool on Thursday. Impact Gomez reportedly committed to a five-year extension through the 2026/2027 season, which comes off a two-year stretch in which he's played in just 25 league and UCL matches. Still, it's no surprise he's earned this fresh deal given how well his skills pair with Virgil van Dijk. However, lately he's served as a backup to Trent Alexander-Arnold at right-back, so his chances of starting are contingent upon being able to stay healthy and allow Alexander-Arnold to stick higher up the pitch and utilize his passing talents. Additionally, Gomez can also fill in at center-back but that area has become crowded with Joel Matip and Ibrahima Konate also competing for minutes.
