Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has released a mostly worrying update on his future just ahead of this weekend’s big game against Manchester United.
The Reds host their bitter rivals at Anfield on Sunday afternoon as they look to continue their strong start to the season which has seen them emerge as somewhat surprise title favourites.
Salah will undoubtedly be a key player in this game again, but his future is his Contract negotiations off the pitch have also dominated the headlines during the last months.
So while many fans will focus on finding last minute tickets for Liverpool vs Man Unitedsurely they will also have their heads turned by another update in the long Salah saga.
Mohamed Salah suggests this will be his last season at Liverpool
Asked again in an interview if he thinks this could be his last season at LFC, Salah again hinted that it would be, with contract talks perhaps not progressing well.
“So far yes, the last six months. There is no progress, we are far from any progress. So we just have to wait and see.” the Egypt international told Sky Sports.
“What I have in mind is if it’s the last six months or year, what do you want to see in the future?
“Do you want to look back and say I was worried about the contract or stressed? I just want to say I had an amazing season.
“That’s on my mind right now. If I feel a little distracted, I remind myself that I want to look back and say I had an amazing season. That’s what I want to do.”
Can Salah hurt United again?
Salah scored against United when these two teams met at Old Trafford earlier in the season, and will certainly figure against this Ruben Amorim side who are struggling so much for confidence at the moment.
Amorim recently guided United to a big win away at rivals Manchester City, but overall his side look a long way from beating an in-form Liverpool side.
It’s hard to imagine this MUFC defense keeping Salah quiet for long, and it seems clear that these contract issues aren’t affecting the player on the pitch.
The 32-year-old continues to do so and if he continues to play like this, he will surely end his Merseyside career with a second Premier League title, which wouldn’t be a bad way to retire.
