Months of speculation surrounding the future of the Reds’ talisman appear close to ending, as it has been widely reported that the 32-year-old is nearing agreement on a new deal with the six-time European champions.
Salah’s future at Anfield has been a topic of discussion since the start of the season, after the prolific winger publicly expressed frustration over the lack of negotiations.
However, it now seems that a breakthrough has been made in recent weeks, and the English giants are set to tie down one of their greatest-ever players to new terms.
When Liverpool last extended his contract in 2022, they made Salah the highest-paid player in the club’s history by offering him £350 000 (R8.7 million) per week. Now, according to The Sun, the Premier League champions-elect will increase that by £50 000 (R1.2 million), with Salah poised to earn £400 000 (R10 million) per week on a brand-new two-year extension.

Should he sign, and remain at the club for the duration of the mooted deal, his time at Liverpool will stretch to a decade, having joined from AS Roma in 2017. Since arriving on Merseyside, Salah has consistently performed at a world-class level, scoring 243 goals and providing 111 assists in 394 appearances. He will undoubtedly add to his legend before he departs.
