Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah has sent shockwaves through the footballing world by hinting that this could be his final season at Anfield.
The Egyptian star, speaking candidly in a recent interview, confirmed that talks over a contract extension are at a standstill.
Salah revealed, โMy LAST season at Liverpool? So far, YESโฆ itโs the final six months, and weโre far away from progress in talks.โ
His admission marks a stark reality for Liverpool fans, who have cherished Salahโs contributions since his arrival in 2017.
The forward, who has been pivotal in Liverpoolโs successes, including the 2019 UEFA Champions League triumph and the 2020 Premier League title, expressed frustration over the lack of progress in negotiations.
โWe are not close; thereโs NO progress,โ Salah added.
With his current contract set to expire at the end of the season, Salahโs future remains uncertain.
Clubs across Europe and the Middle East are likely to be on high alert for the services of the prolific winger, who has consistently been one of the top performers in world football.
As the January transfer window approaches, Liverpool will face a tough decisionโrisk losing their talisman for free in the summer or cash in during the winter window.
Meanwhile, fans are left hoping for a resolution that keeps the โEgyptian Kingโ at Anfield.
Salahโs revelation adds intrigue to Liverpoolโs season as they chase silverware while navigating the uncertainty surrounding one of their biggest stars.
