Liverpool are now reportedly on the verge of landing a star player Mohamed Salah with a new contract after reaching a compromise.
Salah’s future has dominated the headlines in recent weeks and months, while Liverpool have too the subject of Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold reach the end of their contracts.
The Reds could have lost all three of these vital players on free transfers next summer, but the club now appear to be one step closer to keeping Salah.

It appears that after much discussion with Salah’s agent, an agreement has now been reached between all parties on a new two-year deal for the Egypt international, according to the Daily Mirror.
The report claims that money was never the main issue here, but rather the length of the contract, and now it looks like all parties have come to an agreement to extend Salah’s stay.
What boost is this Mohamed Salah news for Liverpool?
If this report turns out to be accurate, it could be huge for Liverpool as they also look to convince Van Dijk and Alexander-Arnold to stay at Anfield.
If a world-class player like Salah is prepared to stay at LFC, it will help convince other players that this club is the place to be right now if you want to win major trophies.
Salah has already won both the Premier League and Champions League during his time at Liverpool, and has been a huge part of Arne Slot’s side taking a commanding lead at the top of the Premier League table this season.
Slot has done a great job since replacing Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool manager, but it would have been a huge challenge for the Dutch tactician to deal with the departure of such an influential player.
