Liverpool have a busy summer ahead of them, as a new era begins at Anfield with Jurgen Klopp’s impending departure and Arne Slot taking over.
The Reds will also see changes in the boardroom, with Richard Hughes taking over as sporting director at Anfield.
Slot, Hughes, and FSG’s Michael Edwards will do all possible to not just sustain but also improve on the Klopp era’s momentum.
The futures of several key Liverpool players, including Mohamed Salah, will be decided in the coming months.
The 31-year-old’s contract at Anfield expires in the summer of 2025, therefore his future on Merseyside is uncertain.
However, according to Sky Sports journalist Dharmesh Sheth, Salah appears to want to stick rather than twist.
What did Dharmesh Sheth say about Mohamed Salah’s future with Liverpool?
Sheth told GiveMeSport: “If you look at it in black and white, Mohamed Salah is under contract with Liverpool. As far as that goes, he will play for Liverpool next season.
“The signals we’re hearing from Liverpool indicate that they anticipate him to be at Anfield next season. Some of the murmurs coming from the Mohamed Salah camp suggest that he wants to stay at Liverpool.
“If all of this comes to fruition, he will stay with the club. At the end of the day, Mohamed Salah has a contract with Liverpool and will decide whether or not to stay.
“If Liverpool say it is the right time to sell him, Mohamed Salah does not have to go.”
Mohamed Salah might help Liverpool team out during the post-Jurgen Klopp transition.
Even though Salah’s contract with Liverpool expires in 2025, he would still be a valuable asset to the club if he left on a free transfer.
His goal contributions remain high, and his experience would be useful on the field, on the training ground, and in the locker room.
With Arne Slot poised to take over at Liverpool, there may be some early doubt about what to anticipate, and Salah might aid throughout the post-Klopp transition.
Unless a Saudi team makes a ridiculously high offer (and they’ll surely know they’ll be able to have him for free in a year), Liverpool might as well keep Salah.
