Egypt’s Mohamed Salah, whose current contract expires in June 2025, has been in discussions with clubs behind the scenes but has yet to agree on terms and conditions and has yet to present an offer. It is already the end of 2024 and many clubs, notably Saudi Arabia, are targeting the Egyptian King without a transfer fee.
The former Roma forward has often spoken to the media about the progress of the negotiations, which, while not exactly inspiring, is believed to be aimed at encouraging the clubs to take action. On the other hand, supporters are increasingly urging the club to sign the right winger, who has been in great form this season.
According to The Mirror, the uncertainty over his departure may soon be dispelled. Mohamed Salah and Fenway Sports Group are close to concluding a compromise two-year deal after months of talks.
Salah’s long-standing agent, Ramy Abbas, had been seeking a three-year deal. However, the length of contract for the attacker, who is the club’s top salary earner and will be 33 years old next year, appears to have been at the heart of the debate and has now settled on the drop.
He also assisted his first year in the team in the previous game against Newcastle United, scoring the equaliser and the winner in the reverse fixture. Not only has he been influential, but he has also saved the team in times of trouble with a different level of decisiveness, and has consistently been at the top of the Premier League scoring charts.
It would be a headache for the club to let go of a player of this calibre. We don’t know the truth of this report, but if true, it would certainly be news of great joy for everyone involved with Liverpool…
