So far this season, Liverpool’s performance has been evident. In the Premier League, Liverpool has achieved 9 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss, accumulating 28 points and topping the league table, leading the defending champion Manchester City by as many as 5 points. In the Champions League, Liverpool has won all four of its matches, securing a full 12 points and also leading the group. Liverpool’s impressive performance can be largely attributed to the decisive role played by Egyptian star Mohamed Salah, who has scored 10 goals and provided 10 assists in 17 matches, becoming the first player in the top five European leagues to reach double digits in both goals and assists this season.
However, given the current situation, it appears that Liverpool may lose Salah. It is well known that Salah’s contract with Liverpool will expire at the end of this season. Although renewal talks began early, according to British media reports, the negotiations between Salah and Liverpool have not gone smoothly, with significant gaps between the two parties, bringing them to the brink of collapse. If Liverpool cannot change this unfavorable situation, Salah will soon be able to negotiate with other clubs.
In fact, the Saudi league has long had its eyes on Salah. Considering the financial power of Saudi league teams, it would be difficult for Liverpool to match their salary offers. However, it is reported that Salah does not prioritize salary as his most important consideration; the Egyptian star remains committed to pursuing honors. Under these circumstances, it is highly possible that Salah could join another Champions League-level team, with French giants Paris Saint-Germain showing a strong interest in him. Besides Salah, Liverpool is also in contract renewal talks with Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk, whose contracts are also nearing expiration.
On November 24, in the 12th round of the Premier League, Liverpool will face Southampton.
