Mohamed Salah  has said he could be playing his last season at Liverpool, adding that “nobody has talked to me” about renewing his contract with the Reds.

The statement from Salah came after Liverpool’s thumping 3-0 win against Manchester United at Old Trafford.  The Egyptian assisted both goals and scored his side’s third in the 56th minute. 

“It could be the last time”

Liverpool’s comprehensive win against United and Salah’s brilliant performance were, however, overshadowed by the striker’s statements.  

“I had a good summer and had a long time to myself to try to stay positive because as you know it’s my last year at the club, he said”

“Coming into the game, I said it could be the last time (I play here with Liverpool).

Mohamed Salah said he is still yet to make up his mind on his future course of footballing career. 

“I just want to enjoy it and I don’t want to think about it. I feel like I’m free to play football and then we’ll see what happens next year.”

Salah’s hints that he might leave the club comes from the fact that his contract with Liverpool expires this summer and the management has not communicated to him regarding a potential renewal. 

“No-one at the club has spoken to me about contracts, so I’m just like, ‘OK, I’m playing my last season’ and see what happens at the end of the season.

When asked about Salah’s comments, Liverpool manager Arne Slot said, “It’s a lot of ‘if’. At this moment he is one of ours and I am really happy with him being one of ours and he played really well.”

“I don’t talk about contracts from players but I can talk for hours about how Mo played today.”

In July 2022, Mohammed Salah signed a new three-year deal with the Reds, reportedly making him the highest paid player in the club’s history, at more than £350,000 a week.

Earlier, Liverpool rejected a £150m offer from Saudi club Al-Ittihad for Salah last September.

The Egypt national football team captain had  joined the Reds for £34m from AS Roma in 2017 has made 253 appearances for Liverpool since then, scoring 158 goals.
