Liverpool are close to agreeing on a new deal with their star forward Mohamed Salah, official announcement could arrive before the end of the year.
According to a report from Marca, Mohamed Salah is close to renewing his contract at Liverpool. While there have been significant doubts about his continuity at the club, the Egyptian international has reportedly agreed to extend his stay at the club. The Reds are pushing hard to secure his future and they could announce the new deal before the end of 2024.
Salah has been a part of the Liverpool setup since 2017. The Merseyside club invested in the Egyptian winger who has termed a Premier League failure following his unsuccessful spell at Chelsea. He turned things around at AS Roma and the Reds decided to bet on him.
Their decision has certainly done wonders for them as he has helped them win all major titles during his time at Anfield. At 32, he is still going strong with 16 goals and 13 assists in his 23 outings. His performances have played a massive role in the team’s dominance in Europe this season.
Salah is on the verge of penning a new deal
Arne Slot is well aware of his importance and wants him around for a few more years. With his contract running out at the end of the season, his future has been a massive talking point. Salah has publicly talked about not being offered a new deal.
While his departure looked almost certain, things have taken a massive turn in recent weeks as the Liverpool owners have decided to push for a renewal. The directors of the club have held talks with the player and his entourage. Those talks have gone according to plan and soon both parties could reach a common ground.
The club is optimistic about getting it done in the coming weeks and they could even end up making an official announcement before the end of the year. While a new deal for the Egyptian international is now closer than ever, the Reds still need to sort things out regarding a new contract for Trent Alexander Arnold and Virgil Van Dijk.
