Mohamed Salah set for new contract talks with Liverpool

The Reds are confident that he will stay at the club

Since joining Liverpool from Roma for an initial fee of around £35 million last summer, Mohamed Salah has massively exceeded all expectations. He has been outstanding for the Reds, scoring 43 goals in all competitions this season and inspired his team to reach the Champions League final.

The Egypt International won the Premier League Golden Boot after scoring 32 goals in his debut campaign and was recognized for his incredible campaign by claiming a Player of the Season double at Liverpool’s end-of-campaign awards.

The winger suffered a suspected dislocated shoulder against Real Madrid in the Champions League final and was withdrawn from the game, the game which they lost 3-1. He has been taken to the hospital and the club is waiting for his results to come.

The 25 year old’s outstanding form this season has seen him linked to Zinedine Zidane’s side and they have also hinted that they are interested in him. Though the Premier League giants have made clear they want to keep hold of their player as Jurgen Klopp wants to build the team around him.

The Red’s chairman Tom Werner is confident that Salah will stay with them for a long time and they are set to reward him a new contract, with improved terms on his current £90,000-a-week contract.

They believe the player will be set for new contract talks as they hope ward off interest from other clubs.

Werner said as quoted by Daily Star: “I am confident. I think he’s enjoying his experience at Liverpool. Mo loves his team-mates and he feels the love from his supporters. I’m sure whenever they sing their song for him, I’m sure it registers.

“I know he’s very happy at Liverpool so I’m optimistic that he will be playing for us for a long time.”
