Followed by PSG for several seasons, Mohamed Salah, at the end of his contract with Liverpool in June, would have “opened the door” to the Parisian club, which however believes that the Egyptian would use this interest to put pressure on the Reds.
Four days after his missed penalty during Liverpool's victory against Real Madrid in the Champions League (2-0), which caused less noise than that of Kylian Mbappé, Mohamed Salah found the net at Anfield on Sunday , validating, on a successful penalty kick this time, the success of the Reds against Manchester City (2-0), after having already delivered an assist to Cody Gakpo for the opener. Which now allows him to record 11 goals and 7 assists in the Premier League since the start of the season.
After the meeting, the one who ends his contract next June once again hinted at a departure. “For now, this is the last Manchester City game that I will play for Liverpool, so I just had to enjoy it. I will enjoy every second here. Hopefully we will win the championship and we will see what happens. will happen,” he told Sky Sport. A week earlier, the Egyptian striker, following his double at Southampton, had already mentioned a future a priori far from the north of England.
“Good chance he ends up at PSG”
“It's almost December and I haven't received any extension offers from the club. I'm probably closer to leaving than staying. You know, I've been here a long time. There's no “There's no other club like this,” he explained. “The fans love me and I love them. But at the end of the day, it's not my decision.” At the club since 2017, Salah, twice elected best player in the English championship, says he is “disappointed”, and would see himself, according to English sources, at PSG, which is experiencing serious efficiency problems. “The two parties have been talking for a long time now. Except that this time, Mohamed Salah has opened the door. There is now a good chance that he will end up at Paris-Saint-Germain,” explains this source to the daily.
It has already been announced several times in Paris, without it coming to fruition. At 32 years old, and soon to be 33, he could be a great deal for the capital club, which would therefore not have to pay any transfer fees. According to L'Equipe, this interest would however have been denied on the Parisian side, for whom Salah would use PSG to put pressure on the Reds. A soap opera which is, however, only in its beginnings.
