Virgil van Dijk says talks with Liverpool over a new deal are "not on hold" but he still has "no idea" what will happen in the summer, when his contract is set to expire.

The Liverpool captain was unable to prevent his side crashing out of the Champions League to Paris Saint-Germain in the last 16 on Tuesday night.

Afterwards, he spoke with reporters and revealed there is still no definitive resolution on whether he stays with Liverpool or becomes a free agent at the end of this season, despite ongoing conversations with the club.

"I have no idea. I still have no idea at the moment," Van Dijk said when asked whether he would be playing for Liverpool at the start of next season.
