Liverpool get potentially crucial Mohamed Salah boost amid ongoing contract discussions

 

Salah’s current deal with Liverpool ends next summer, but manager Arne Slot is said to want to agree to new terms because there are rumors he could join a team in Saudi Arabia. Last September, the club turned down a £150 million bid from Al-Ittihad.


A month ago, Salah made the statement that there had been no movement made on a new contract and that it was possible that this would be his “last year” at Liverpool.

“Nobody in the club talked to me yet about contracts so I was just like, ‘OK, I play my last season and see at the end of the season’,” he said to reporters. “I feel I am free to play football – we will see what happens next year.”On the other hand, Salah is about to go on a key run of matches with Liverpool, and Egypt won’t play another game until March, after the next international break.


The next match for the Reds is a home match against Chelsea, followed by a trip to Red Bull Leipzig only three days later, and then the following weekend, they will go to Arsenal, who are their championship rivals.

Following that, there will be two matches against Brighton in a row around the end of the month, followed by three matches in the span of nine days to begin the month of November. After that, players will leave to begin playing for their respective countries once more.

Salah is one of the most influential players in the history of Liverpool. He has scored 217 goals for the club in 359 appearances, which places him in third place among the club’s all-time scorers, behind only Roger Hunt and Ian Rush.A significant boost has been provided to Liverpool as a result of the possibility that Mohamed Salah would not be required for Egypt during the upcoming international break. This comes as Liverpool continues to negotiate the extension of his contract at Anfield.

Salah did not play in Egypt’s 1-0 victory against Mauritania this week due to worries that he would sustain an injury on their artificial surface. Egypt’s manager, Hossam Hassan, was also concerned about the impact of the striker going up against “violent” defense.

Egypt and Liverpool have both been very particular about managing Salah’s fitness in order to keep him as fresh as possible for the most important games. Now that his country has qualified for the African Cup of Nations, there is a possibility that he will not be called upon for their upcoming matches against Cape Verde and Botswana in November. Liverpool and Egypt have both been very particular about managing Salah’s fitness.

If the 32-year-old player were to be given a rest for those games and given an additional month to recuperate from Premier League activity, it would be potentially essential to the chances of keeping his health and longevity in the game. This would have a significant influence on the likelihood of tying him down to a new contract with Liverpool.
