Liverpool has reportedly made a formal contract extension offer to Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah, whose current deal is set to expire at the end of the season.
This move marks a significant step in the club’s efforts to retain their talisman as speculation about his future intensifies.
Speaking last month, Salah openly addressed his uncertain future, hinting at the possibility of leaving Anfield. “We are almost in December, and I haven’t received any offers yet to stay with the club,” he revealed and added “I’m probably more out than in. I’ve been with this club for many years, and there’s no place like it. I love the fans, and they love me, but it’s out of my hands now.”
According to reports gathered by sources, Liverpool’s ‘opening’ offer aims to extend Salah’s stay, but negotiations are expected to take time, with no imminent agreement on the horizon.
Last weekend, several outlets in England speculated that Salah might agree to a two-year contract, albeit on reduced terms, as part of the deal.
The 32-year-old remains a vital part of Liverpool’s attack, and the club appears determined to keep him beyond next summer.
However, the prospect of reduced wages could prove a sticking point in what promises to be a complex negotiation process.
Meanwhile, several top clubs have been linked with a possible move to snap Mohamed Salah from Liverpool.
