If discussions continue to stagnate, Mohamed Salah (32) will leave Liverpool at the end of the season. Paris Saint-Germain is interested but bound by Luis Enrique's decisions.
While his priority has always been to extend at Liverpool, Mohamed Salah could ultimately and before the end of the winter transfer window, not find a solution with the Reds. According to Sacha Tavolieri, expert journalist on the transfer market, it is the conditions of the Egyptian's extension which are currently holding back the American owners of the English club. At 32 years old, Mohamed Salah, and based on the excellent results he offers each week to Liverpool in the English league, is demanding a contract that can extend until June 2028. A long-term contract, therefore, which would lead until he was thirty-five years old on the banks of the Mersey and in a Premier League so generous in terms of salaries.
Contract length bothers Liverpool
Mohamed Salah's request does not meet the philosophy of Liverpool's leaders. Who for their part want a reduced contract during this transfer window, enhanced with an option linked to the player's performance. They particularly fear seeing Mohamed Salah decline year after year once the new contract is signed. If negotiations between the two parties are still underway, each camp will necessarily have to take a step towards the other, even if obviously, and as Salah suggested recently in a television interview, we are still very far from an agreement.
Luis Enrique not hot on Salah?
Among the Egyptian crack's other landing points are Saudi Arabia, with several clubs likely to offer him a golden bridge, but also the Paris Saint-Germain club. In France, and particularly in the French capital, we know that relations are excellent between the player's agent and Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, the president of PSG. Salah can always count on the latter's interest and listening, but the president knows it: the total autonomy in terms of power given to Luis Enrique, the PSG coach, could compromise the Qatari's initiative on this issue. case…
The Spanish coach, as long as he does not suffer from a real crisis of results, will always have the last word on the transfer window. Summer and winter. Does he really want to attract the Liverpool striker to PSG? No one is able to answer and especially not the person concerned who, we know, will never share their desires with journalists at a press conference. The only certainty, and at the moment, we can imagine Mohamed Salah signing one last lucrative contract. Corresponding to his current performances and his numerous goals which offer the Liverpool Reds excellent results and a leading place in the Premier League ahead of Arsenal, Nottingham Forest and Manchester City. We don't necessarily expect this new contract at Liverpool, any more than at PSG. But rather in Saudi Arabia which would at the same time continue to strike hard at the international level with an XXL star.
The charm of the transfer window remains. Because during this month of January, like next summer, you should never say never about the will of the players. And Mohamed Salah should be no exception. The schedule for the coming weeks should confirm this and allow the Salah soap opera to continue for several weeks.
