His words pricked up the ears of practically every Liverpool fan on Sunday.
After assisting two and scoring one of Liverpool’s three goals at Old Trafford, Mohamed Salah spoke in front of Sky’s cameras.
It was 10 words in particular that caught the attention: “as you know it’s my last year at the club.”
Hold on Mo, no we didn’t know that.
Ok, we knew that he has entered the final year of his current contract. But nobody has any idea about whether he will extend or not.
He did go on to expand, saying nobody had yet spoken to him about a new deal. As such, his mindset is that every away game he now plays could be his last against that club, depending on his post-Liverpool destination. Old Trafford is a big one. He enjoys playing there.
Since then, both Sky’s Melissa Reddy and the Liverpool ECHO’s Paul Gorst have stated that they believe Salah’s intention is to remain in Merseyside beyond 2024-25. Reliable journalists.
