Mohamed Salah’s future at Liverpool is nearing a decisive moment, with reports suggesting the Egyptian forward has set a deadline for contract negotiations to be resolved.
According to Egyptian outlet Masrawy, discussions between Salah and Liverpool over a potential contract extension have been ongoing for months, but a final decision is expected by March.
If an agreement is not reached within this timeframe, there may be no further discussions, leaving the door open for other options.
Salah remains a key figure in Liverpool’s campaign, delivering exceptional performances that continue to drive the club’s success.
His contributions on the pitch have been instrumental, further complicating the club’s decision on whether to meet his demands or risk losing one of their most influential players.
Liverpool previously rejected a substantial bid from Saudi Pro League side Al Ittihad last summer, reportedly worth around £150 million.
With Salah’s contract situation still unresolved, speculation has grown over renewed interest from Saudi clubs, particularly Al Hilal, who are reportedly eyeing the winger as a potential marquee signing.
Despite his contractual uncertainty, Salah’s form has shown no signs of decline.
The 31-year-old remains among the Premier League’s top performers, consistently delivering goals and assists as Liverpool push for domestic and European success.
Financial experts have suggested that retaining Salah on a new deal could be a more cost-effective solution for Liverpool than seeking a replacement.
Some estimates indicate that meeting his wage demands would be significantly less expensive than securing a high-profile alternative in the current transfer market.
With March fast approaching, the pressure is mounting on Liverpool to make a definitive decision.
Will the club meet Salah’s expectations, or is his time at Anfield drawing to a close?
