‘This is my last year’, Salah says no talks over new Liverpool deal

Mohamed Salah says it is his “last year” at Liverpool and that nobody at the club has talked to him about a new contract.

The 32-year-old, whose current deal at Anfield is set to expire next summer, scored in the Reds’ thumping 3-0 win at Manchester United on Sunday.

Salah said afterwards he had treated the match like it was his last at Old Trafford.

“I was coming to the game, I was saying, ‘look, it could be the last time’.

“Nobody in the club talked to me yet about contracts so I was just like, ‘OK, I play my last season and see at the end of the season’.

“I feel I am free to play football – we will see what happens next year,” he said.

When asked about Salah’s comments, manager Arne Slot said: “It’s a lot of ‘if’. At this moment he is one of ours and I am really happy with him being one of ours and he played really well.

“I don’t talk about contracts from players but I can talk for hours about how Mo played today.”

In July 2022, Salah signed a new three-year deal, making him reportedly the highest paid player in the club’s history, on more than £350,000 a week.

Liverpool rejected a £150m offer from Al-Ittihad for Salah last September.
