Seen as a real option for Kylian Mbappé's succession to PSG, Mohamed Salah is expected to continue discussing with Liverpool over a contract extension when FC Barcelona also prepare their offensive.
“How long do I see myself here in Liverpool?” It does not depend on me. But if you ask me, I would love to stay until my last day of football. But I can't say much about it, it's not in my hands. It depends on what the club wants, not on me ”. Here is the meaningful message that Mohamed Salah disclosed in October in an interview with Sky Sports. Although no concrete progress can be noted in the Salah file for Liverpool , and more particularly at the level of his extension for his current contract until June 2023, the Reds would not let go and would continue their work to complete this operation. At the same time, PSG would keep an eye on the progress of this file, for a very specific reason. Indeed, at the very end of the season, the PSG could be forced to turn the page Kylian Mbappé and close a chapter full of five years long success. To replace the world champion, PSG would think of Mohamed Salah . Nonetheless, Salah's future is likely to be written in Liverpool .
Liverpool are not giving up on Salah's extension!
This is at least one of the many pieces of information that Fabrizio Romano communicated on Tuesday on the occasion of the publication of the last episode of the Here We Go Podcast. According to the journalist, Liverpool 's priority would remain the same and would lie in reaching an agreement with Mohamed Salah and his agent Ramy Abbas Issa regarding the bases of his possible future contract with the Reds. To do this, Liverpool would continue discussions with the Egyptian's representative with a view to finding common ground before summer comes, when Salah will only have one year of contract left on the side of Liverpool.
And Barça intends to put sticks in the wheels of PSG
According to information from El Nacional, Xavi Hernandez would demand, from its president Joan Laporta, the arrival of a star at FC Barcelona on the occasion of the next summer transfer window. And Mohamed Salah would be the priority for Barca coach. Especially since Liverpool would resign themselves to selling the Reds forward if no deal could be reached by the end of the season on a contract extension. The obstacles would therefore multiply for PSG in the race for the signing of Mohamed Salah .
