'Egypt King'The history of Mohamed Salah's renewal in Liverpool is expected to finally be finalized.
On the 10th (Korea time), a series of media, including the British Daily Mail, reported that `Liverpool star Mohamed Salah finally signs a new contract.'
The three star fighters, Salah and Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold, whose contracts with Liverpool expire at the end of this season, have been a hot topic among soccer fans all season. The Daily Mail reported that Salah is close to signing a two-year contract with Liverpool. He added that `Alexander-Arnold is set to move to Real Madrid, with Virgil van Dijk expected to follow suit.'
Salah has been rumored to transfer to the Saudi Arabian League for the past two years. RT Hard offered a £150m transfer fee in 2023 and did not stop courting ahead of the expiration of Salah's contract with Liverpool this summer. Salah also hinted that this could be his last season in Liverpool, saying in an interview with Sky Sports late last year that `there will be more players going out than coming in.' However, many saw it as a strategy for Salah, who was born in 1992, the same age as Son Heung-min, to pressure Liverpool management, Fenway Sports Group (FSG) head Michael Edwards and new sports director Richard Hughes on better terms of renewal. FSG has long made it a policy not to re-sign players in their 30s, but fans have called on owners and management to allow exceptions to Salah. Salah is on the verge of winning Liverpool this season with 27 goals and 17 assists in 31 league games, leading the scoring and helping lead the league.
Details of Salah's possible new contract are unknown, but a two-year extension is likely for now.
Liverpool captain center back Van Dijk, who will turn 34 in July, is also likely to stay with Salah. VanDijk told the press earlier this week that progress had been made in negotiations with Liverpool," he said publicly. While two of the three remaining players are certain to remain, Alexander-Arnold is in the final stages of Real Madrid transfer negotiations. Daeho Real Madrid, reported in December, seems confident that Arnold will soon become his player. Arnold is scheduled to return from an ankle injury next month.
