Mo Salah has just set tongues wagging with a cryptic hint about his future at Liverpool, suggesting he might be on his way out at the end of the season. Following Liverpool’s commanding 3-0 win over Manchester United, Salah, whose contract winds down next summer, spoke in a manner that has left fans and pundits buzzing with speculation.
Despite a jaw-dropping £200 million bid from Al-Ittihad last summer and an astronomical offer of £100 million per year for the Egyptian star, Liverpool, with Jürgen Klopp at the helm, turned down the advances. It seems the saga is far from over, as Salah’s recent comments only add fuel to the fire.
Salah revealed his mindset in an interview after the match, saying, “I had a good summer and took some time to reflect. As you know, it’s my last year at the club. I just want to enjoy it and not overthink it. I’m playing freely and we’ll see what the future holds.”
When pressed about contract talks, he added, “Nobody has approached me about a new deal. I’m just focused on playing this season and we’ll see what happens at the end. It’s not up to me; no discussions have happened yet.”
The winger has hit the ground running this season, already amassing three goals and three assists in Liverpool’s unbeaten start. His tantalizing hints about his future are sure to keep fans and transfer experts on edge as the season progresses.
