Mohamed Salah has still not received an offer from Liverpool FC to extend his contract, which expires in the summer. "It's almost December and I haven't seen anything yet," Salah said in a video released by TV channel NBC Sports on X. "I'm probably more gone than staying," the 32-year-old continued. When asked by a reporter whether he was disappointed with the club because of the situation, the Egyptian replied: "Of course, yes."
Salah spoke the words after a 3-2 laborious victory at bottom-of-the-table Southampton FC on Sunday evening. The outstanding attacking player made the difference. He scored in the 65th minute to equalize 2-2 for the visitors and scored the winning goal in the 83rd minute from a penalty.
Retirement not an issue for Salah
"I've been at the club for many years, but in the end it's not in my hands," said Salah afterwards, unusually open about his future. Even the fact that the fans love him has no influence on the situation. "It's almost December and I still haven't received an offer to stay at the club," Salah reiterated.
The former Basel professional has been playing for the Reds since 2017 and celebrated many successes at the Premier League club under former coach Jürgen Klopp. Salah made it clear that he is not thinking about ending his career any time soon. "I'm certainly not going to retire soon," he said, adding: "I'm focused on the season."
At the very least, he wants to win the championship and is also flirting with winning the Champions League. The big clash against defending champions Real Madrid will take place in the top flight on Wednesday. blue Sport broadcasts all Champions League matches live.
