Latest News on Mohamed Salah’s Contract Extension Negotiations with Liverpool: Will He Stay or Go?

On Monday, reliable journalists in The Athletic and The Times reported that Mohamed Salah wants to stay at Liverpool next season, and that the club wants to keep the Egyptian top scorer. David Lynch writes in an article for This is Anfield that he is sitting on the same information, but at the same time he cannot be completely ruled that the man who will be 32 this summer will not leave.

New sporting director Richard Hughes may also face difficult contract negotiations with Salah and his agent Ramy Abbas Issa. Lynch writes that Salah wants to extend the contract, which lasts until 2025, by at least one year. The question is whether Liverpool will agree to it, while Salah is clearly the club’s best-paid player on £350,000-a-week, and on top of that he has failed to show in time finally.

Another option could be to let the deal run its course and allow Salah to leave the club for Bosman next summer, something the club have shown they are not used to doing with big stars, but it will also be interesting to see what the club does. if it comes to new applications from Saudi Arabia.

“But although the club had no doubts about rejecting the applications last year, they will surely admit that the matter is somewhat more complicated this time.”

Salah might be the man the Saudi Pro League would love to bring to their line-up, but the attacking player has a desire to play at the highest level for as long as possible, and he hasn’t He has always announced that he wants to move to the Jordanian league. Henderson, Fabinho, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mané and Gini Wijnaldum joined last summer.

It is likely that we will see Salah leading Liverpool’s attack when Arne Slot is on the sidelines next season. Then it becomes a question of what happens when we write in the summer of 2025.

Apparently, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk are out of contract in 2025, so Hughes has a busy summer!
