Mohamed Salah is very close to signing a new contract with Liverpool, which would keep him at Anfield until the end of his career. The news was published by the prestigious English Mirror, which has indicated that the 29-year-old has thought long and hard and decided to end the renewal soap opera by accepting the terms of the club.
This is great news for the coach Jurgen Klopp, who will have at his disposal one of the best strikers in the world at the moment, and in the coming seasons. Before agreeing with the club's management, the Egyptian rejected Liverpool's latest offer, under which he would earn around ,400,000 XNUMX a week.
This scared the Liverpool board, as in case he did not renew, Salah would be a free agent next summer. This way, the player could join any club in Europe at zero cost. And it is understood that offers for Salah would not be lacking, with clubs like Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona having long expressed their interest.
But now it seems the player is willing to compromise with his initial demand of ,500,000 XNUMX a week, very close to what Cristiano Ronaldo earns at Manchester United.
Salah has started from the great affection that Liverpool fans have towards him and it is thought that he has agreed for a 3-year renewal, with the option of extending his contract and for another 1 year extra. The footballer himself has never questioned his loyalty to "The Reds", and has repeatedly expressed that he feels very happy at Anfield. However, he has demanded that his status as one of the best strikers in the world be translated into the salary he receives.
