Liverpool thrashed West Ham with a dominant 5-0 victory on Sunday, and once again, Mo Salah proved why he is one of the best. He scored a goal and provided two assists, further solidifying his incredible form. Liverpool sit eight points clear on top of the table, with a game still in hand. Salah currently leads as the Premier League top scorer this season, with 17 goals in 18 matches and an impressive 13 assists.
However, much speculation surrounds Salah’s current contract situation with Liverpool, as he has yet to agree on a new deal. Fans are eagerly awaiting any positive updates about his future with the club.
When asked about his contract during the post-match interview, Salah addressed the uncertainty, saying,
“No, we are far away from that. I don’t want to put something in the media and people start saying stuff, but nothing really has moved on. For now, I’m focused on the team, and hopefully, we win the Premier League.” (Sky Sports)
According to football journalist Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool are negotiating new deals with Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Virgil van Dijk. While the club is eager to finalize contracts for all three players, there has been no breakthrough in the negotiations so far.
The Reds must prioritize securing a new deal for Salah, who has consistently proven himself as one of the Premier League’s finest goal-scorers. Over the years, he has helped the club claim seven major trophies, including a Champions League and a Premier League title.
