The Egyptian star’s future at Anfield is close to being resolved

Liverpool are in the final stages of negotiations to extend Mohamed Salah’s contract. The club is planning to offer the Egyptian forward a new three-year deal, which would put an end to long-standing speculation over his future. For several months, persistent reports from various outlets suggested a potential transfer to Saudi Arabia was on the cards for the 32-year-old.

Now, Salah looks set to continue his remarkable career at Anfield. He’s been in outstanding form this season, leading the team in both goals and assists, and playing a crucial role in their Premier League title charge.

Liverpool’s “Big Three” Contract Situation

Because agreements with a trio of key Liverpool players are due to end this summer, supporters have been especially focused on and concerned about Salah’s situation. Alongside the Egyptian, the list includes:

• Trent Alexander-Arnold, regarding whom there has been significant speculation about a transfer to Real Madrid
• Virgil van Dijk, following his recent comment that clarification on his future would be provided in the upcoming months

Unlike his teammates, however, Salah has been more open about his situation. Just last month, he publicly admitted that talks had stalled. But over the past few weeks, the scenario has changed dramatically.

Breakthrough in Talks: What’s on the Table?

According to Egyptian outlet Masrawy, Liverpool have entered an advanced phase of negotiations with Salah’s agent, Ramy Abbas. Unlike previous rounds, the current discussions have reached a far more serious and constructive stage.

The club is said to have made an offer that goes beyond the scope of any proposals submitted before, according to sources. Moreover, the expected departure of Alexander-Arnold has played a key role in freeing up the financial flexibility needed to improve Salah’s terms.

What This Means for Liverpool’s Future

Retaining Salah represents a key strategic objective for Liverpool. Although not young anymore, his contribution as the team’s primary attacking threat remains undiminished. His experience and leadership are vital as the club undergoes a transition under their new manager.

At the same time, Alexander-Arnold’s potential exit would allow Liverpool to reallocate part of their wage budget and meet Salah’s demands. By convincing him to remain, the club would safeguard the presence of at least one key cornerstone of the team.

Liverpool fans face a waiting game for the official announcement, though the apparent momentum of the negotiations implies it might not be long delayed.
