Speaking to reporters, the Dutchman said: "I have no idea. I still have no idea at the moment. Genuinely. I have no idea at the moment. It is not on hold. Nothing on hold. There’s just… I keep saying the same thing. Listen, there are ten games to go, and that is my full focus. If there is news, you guys will know it.
"I don’t even know myself. Everyone knows there are some conversations behind the scenes, but that is about it. At the moment, I don’t even know what will happen next year. If anyone says they do know, they are lying to your face."
After the loss against the French champions, Van Dijk sent Liverpool fans into a panic as he was spotted speaking with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi and sporting director Luis Campos. Liverpool have also yet to finalise new contracts for Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
The Reds will now aim to bag their first trophy of the season on Sunday as they gear up to face Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley.
