Liverpool is inching closer to securing Mohamed Salah’s future at Anfield, with reports on Wednesday indicating that talks over a new contract for the Egypt star are making strong progress.
The 32-year-old forward, whose current contract runs out at the end of this season, has been at the center of speculation, especially with his teammates Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold also nearing the end of their deals.
While Alexander-Arnold has been linked to a high-profile free move to Real Madrid, Van Dijk expressed confidence after Sunday’s tough 3-2 loss to Fulham, confirming that talks for a new deal were ongoing for the club captain.
Salah, who has scored 27 goals in the Premier League this season, has been the standout performer for the Reds. Since arriving from Roma in 2017, the two-time African Footballer of the Year has netted 243 goals in 394 appearances, cementing his place as one of the club’s all-time greats.
With eight major trophies under his belt, including a Champions League win and the club’s first Premier League title in 30 years, Salah’s impact has been undeniable. Though he was once linked with a move to Saudi Arabia, the forward has repeatedly expressed his preference to stay at Liverpool.
Despite some uncertainty in previous months, including remarks suggesting he might be “more out than in,” Salah’s intentions now seem aligned with Liverpool’s desire to keep him for the long haul. Negotiations are still underway, but with growing optimism, fans can be hopeful that Salah will sign a new deal to stay on Merseyside.
