Salah, 32, posted a message over the weekend which has been interpreted by fans as a farewell to Anfield and recent reports in Egypt suggest he has not been approached in any official capacity by the club over a new deal.

As Liverpool’s top earner, on around £350,000 per week, a renewal for Salah won’t come easily for Richard Hughes, the Reds’ sporting director and FSG’s CEO of Football Michael Edwards.
