As we speak, whether Mohamed Salah will stay at Liverpool is uncertain. In recent weeks, there has been a lot of speculation about Salah’s Liverpool contract.
According to Metro, the 29-year old Egyptian international’s contract will expire in 2023. So, if he can’t reach an agreement with the Reds within the following 15 months, he may have to leave as a free agent. As it stands, there is still time, unless he decides otherwise and leaves his club this season.
What awaits for Liverpool’s finest footballer?
Mohamed Salah has already stated that he wants to stay at Liverpool. However, he also said that his future lies in the hands of the Merseyside club. Meanwhile, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is also doubtful if his star player would sign a contract extension as other teams express their interest to include the Egyptian in their squad.
Under Klopp’s coaching, the 29-year-old has had five incredible seasons at Anfield. During this time, he scored 153 goals in 239 games and assisted Liverpool to Premier League and Champions League titles. So far in this season, Salah has 28 goals and 10 assists to his name. In the way, he helped Liverpool contend for the Premier League championship and advance to the Champions League quarter-finals.
Liverpool have advanced to the FA Cup semi-finals after defeating Nottingham Forest in the Championship, where they will meet championship rivals Manchester City.

Mohamed Salah is likely to stay at Anfield?
As it stands, the Egyptian international wants to stay at Anfield. However, he is looking forward to a long-term contract. He is aware that he could earn “crazy” money elsewhere, but the respect he has acquired at Anfield is unrivalled.
Salah might become the richest footballer in the Premier League
Salah is said to be seeking a weekly wage of around £500,000, which Liverpool are hesitant to pay. If the Reds agree to his payment terms, Salah would become the highest-paid player in the Premier League. As of now, only time will tell what awaits in Salah’s career. But, wherever he ends up being, there’s no doubt that he has played an instrumental role in helping the Merseyside club become such an indomitable force.
