Fabrizio Romano has provided his latest update on Mohamed Salah and some of the speculation

Mohamed Salah’s contract situation at Liverpool has become a focal point as the Egyptian forward enters the final year of his current deal, set to expire in the summer of 2025.

Despite ongoing speculation, no formal talks have begun between Salah and the club.

Salah himself revealed that discussions for an extension have yet to take place, leaving his future at Anfield in limbo?.

Reports indicate that Salah is eager to stay at Liverpool, with family and personal ties keeping him rooted in the city.

However, his lack of a new deal raises concerns, especially as he will be eligible to sign a pre-contract agreement with foreign clubs starting in January 2025?

Salah has already turned down interest from Saudi clubs last summer (notably from Al-Ittihad), choosing to remain at the highest level of European football?

Liverpool, under the guidance of Richard Hughes and co, is expected to prioritize these talks soon, given Salah’s incredible impact on the team.

His performance this season has been stellar, tallying three goals and three assists in the early Premier League fixtures.

What did Fabrizio Romano say about Mohamed Salah?

As Fabrizio Romano emphasizes, while Salah’s contract expires in the summer of 2025, there is no certainty that he will leave as a free agent.

Salah is awaiting discussions with Liverpool regarding his future, and both the player and the club have expressed a mutual willingness to engage in talks:

“Mo Salah has been fantastic of late but a lot has been made of that recent interview,” Romano wrote in his Daily Briefing.

“I came here guys to tell you again that it doesn’t mean that Mo Salah is 100% leaving Liverpool, but he’s waiting to have a conversation with the club.”

“And this remains the point.”

“I can confirm once again, that Liverpool and Mo Salah will talk in the next days, weeks and months.

I can’t predict now how long the conversation will be, but there will be discussions around Mo Salah’s contract situation?

The story isn’t over yet,” the Italian explained.

“At this point, it’s a possibility that he could leave as a free agent in the summer yes, but it’s not guaranteed at all because Liverpool want to talk to Salah, and Salah wants to talk to Liverpool.”

This situation mirrors those of other Liverpool stalwarts like Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold, who are also in similar stages of contract negotiations.

It’s clear that Salah is happy with Liverpool’s current trajectory under new management, but the length and financial aspects of a potential new contract will likely be central to these discussions?:

“He’s very happy with the new project, with Arne Slot, the new directors and the new management but his situation is similar to Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold,” Romano continued.

“These conversations will help to understand if Mo Salah and Liverpool can continue together in the future, or part ways.”

“So, the discussion will take place and let’s see what happens financially and in terms of the length of the contract.”
