Prominent sports lawyer Daniel Geey has explained the "cynical" reason Mohamed Salah could be set for a Liverpool departure this summer.

Calls to extend the contracts of Salah and Van Dijk, in particular, have grown as they spearhead Arne Slot's drive to win the Premier League title, but Geey noted another issue therein.

"Liverpool have been paying these three players at an undervalue for the last 18 months or so," said Geey on The Overlap Fan Debate with Sky Bet.



"Whatever Salah was worth three years ago, he might be worth a lot more now in terms of his performance levels.

"And then there's another, more cynical view.

It'll all be determined at the end of the season if they play well or not and win the league and Champions League."

It's an intriguing notion that Salah - who leads the race for the Premier League Golden Boot on 23 goals this season - has consciously raised his levels so drastically this term.

Asked for his take on who was the most likely to leave Liverpool this summer, Geey was left with one answer.

"[I'm a] terrible betting man, but if I was gonna go, I would go with Van Dijk," he said.

I think Salah is more likely to go."
