Mohamed Salah has been urged by Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher to break his media silence following the confirmation of his contract extension with the Premier League giants.
The Egyptian forward put pen to paper this week on a new two-year deal that will keep him at Anfield, quashing months of speculation about his future.
The announcement brought relief to supporters and the club alike, ensuring the continuation of one of the most prolific attacking partnerships in English football.
Carragher, a former Reds defender and now a prominent football pundit, welcomed the renewal but couldn’t resist a final plea to the club’s talisman.
Having previously voiced concerns over Salah’s public handling of negotiations, Carragher took a lighter tone in his latest remarks, directing a personal message to the 31-year-old winger.
“But I have one last request regarding Salah, from all of us who loved every second of his Anfield career. I hope signing his contract doesn’t mean the end of his media interviews until the next round of negotiations! Can I save you a seat on Monday Night Football, Mo?” Carragher wrote in his column.
Salah, who has earned a reputation for keeping a low profile off the pitch, has rarely granted in-depth interviews during his time at Liverpool, often choosing to let his performances speak for themselves.
This quiet presence has fueled intrigue around the Egyptian, even as he continues to break records and etch his name into the club’s history books.
Carragher’s tongue-in-cheek request also hints at a broader desire among fans and former players to hear more directly from one of the club’s most iconic modern figures.
With his future now secured, Salah may find himself under renewed calls to open up about his journey, legacy, and ambitions at Liverpool.
The extension of Salah’s stay at Anfield adds further stability to a Liverpool side undergoing a period of transition, with Jurgen Klopp seeking to revitalize his squad after a challenging campaign.
Salah’s commitment is seen as a crucial step in maintaining the club’s competitive edge domestically and in Europe.
As attention now turns to the upcoming season, Carragher’s message serves as both a celebration of Salah’s legacy and a friendly nudge toward greater visibility from a player whose voice remains as coveted as his goals.
