Mohamed Salah Contract Update: Expert Analyzes Liverpool Future Amidst PSG Rumors | OneFootball

On Sunday, L’Équipe reported that Paris Saint-Germain and Mohamed Salah’s representatives have been in talks, with the 32-year-old now seemingly more open to the idea of joining the Ligue 1 side. This has fueled speculation about a potential transfer.

However, PSG quickly shot down the rumors, with a club spokesperson telling the French outlet, “It’s not true.” The report also suggests that Salah may be using these rumors to strengthen his contract negotiations with Liverpool.

A recent report from Football Insider indicates that Salah is looking for a lucrative extension to stay at Anfield until 2027. The Egyptian forward, who has already cemented his place as a Liverpool legend, is reportedly seeking “three more years” with the club.

While talking to Football Insider, former Man United and Blackburn chief scout Mick Brown said that the longer the issue drags on, the more uncertain his future becomes.

“I don’t believe he wants to leave Liverpool,” Brown told Football Insider. “From what I’m told, he’d be quite happy to sign a new deal and stay there if there is one on the table.

“As things stand, we’re led to believe that offer hasn’t been made. But I know Liverpool want to tie him down and keep him for the future, which is huge because he’s been such an important player for them and still is.

“Regardless of whether they win the title this season, they want him to remain an important player. Otherwise, if they lose him, their chances of winning the title again will be severely dented.

“But they’ll have to make that offer soon, even if the final decision isn’t made until later on, because otherwise what is he going to think? The longer it goes on without an offer, questions are going to be asked about why.”

Journalist Ben Jacobs reported on Monday, citing sources, that PSG are not currently in talks with Salah. Despite Salah’s long-standing friendship with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi, the French club has not taken any steps toward signing him.

Jacobs also suggests that Salah might be using PSG’s name to apply more pressure on Liverpool.
