Liverpool and Netherlands midfielder Ryan Gravenberch
Liverpool have secured the long‑term future of midfielder Ryan Gravenberch, with the 23‑year‑old Dutch international signing a fresh contract that runs until the summer of 2032. The extension comes after the midfielder’s previous deal was set to expire in 2028, and represents a significant commitment from both player and club.
Gravenberch, who joined Liverpool from Bayern Munich in September 2023 for a reported £34.2 million, has quickly established himself as a key figure in the Reds’ midfield since his arrival at Anfield. He has made over 120 appearances across all competitions, contributing directly to Liverpool’s Premier League title success last season.
The six‑year extension underscores Liverpool’s confidence in Gravenberch’s long‑term value, with the midfielder expected to form a core part of the squad over the next decade.
Financial details of the contract suggest a substantial increase in earnings for Gravenberch. Reports indicate his new deal could be worth more than €100 million in total — approximately £277,000 per week in wages — making him one of the club’s top earners.
In an interview with the club’s official media, Gravenberch described the decision to extend his stay at Liverpool as “easy,” emphasising his pride at securing a long‑term future at a “big club.” He also cited the trust shown by both the club hierarchy and manager as key factors in his decision to commit.
The midfielder highlighted his family’s happiness in Liverpool and his strong relationship with the supporters, noting that hearing fans sing his name at Anfield has been particularly meaningful. He also expressed determination to help the club secure more silverware in the years ahead.
Gravenberch’s new deal arrives as Liverpool navigate a campaign of mixed results, with the club still competing in multiple competitions including the FA Cup and the Champions League. His consistent presence in the starting XI underscores his importance to manager Arne Slot’s tactical plans.
The contract renewal aligns with Liverpool’s broader strategy of retaining core talent amid interest from other European clubs, signalling intent to build continuity around a relatively young squad that has already delivered domestic success.
With Gravenberch now tied down for the long term, attention at Anfield will increasingly turn to other important squad members whose contracts are approaching critical junctures, as the club aims to maintain competitiveness at the highest level.
