Mo Salah’s visible frustration over stalled contract negotiations has sparked mixed reactions among pundits.
Despite positive discussions between his agent, Ramy Abbas Issa, and Liverpool, Salah’s concerns are understandable as he, alongside Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk, will soon be eligible to negotiate pre-contract terms with foreign clubs, with only 30 days remaining.
The Egyptian star has emphasized that leaving Anfield is not his preferred option, often expressing his deep connection with the fanbase during a season where Liverpool leads both domestically and internationally.
Mo Salah and PSG Links
Reports of interest from PSG in signing Salah are not new. In October, it was claimed that Luis Enrique identified Salah as an “ideal” acquisition.
However, any rumors of advanced talks with the French side for a 2025/26 move have been dismissed, with insider Ben Jacobs clarifying that such claims are unfounded.
Instead, PSG’s interest may serve as leverage for Salah to secure a favorable contract extension at Liverpool.
What Is Salah Seeking?
According to *The Athletic*, Salah might consider a one-year contract extension, though this falls short of ideal for the player and his representatives, who likely seek a deal reflecting his ongoing high performance.
Given Salah’s exceptional form and his proven longevity in the Premier League, Liverpool would be wise to meet his demands.
Securing at least a short-term extension could buy time for longer-term negotiations and allow the club to focus on addressing the expiring contracts of Alexander-Arnold and Van Dijk.
