Liverpool make decision on selling Mo Salah after Jurgen Klopp row as David Ornstein provides huge update

Liverpool have made a decision on Mo Salah following the heated spat with Jurgen Klopp on Saturday.

After West Ham equalised to make it 2-2 at the London Stadium, Salah was involved in a frosty exchange with Klopp as he prepared to enter the fray as a substitute.

Arms were waved in frustration as the two argued in scenes which disappointed Reds supporters.

Both Klopp and Salah briefly addressed the matter post-match and it later emerged that the alleged cause of the tear-up was a refusal to hug from the Egyptian.

The two did not shake hands at the full-time whistle, with Salah heading down the tunnel.

Rumours about Salah's future have been rife but according to David Ornstein from The Athletic, the former Chelsea star is not available.

Liverpool anticipate that their talisman will stay put for at least another season under impending new manager Arne Slot.

Interest from Saudi Pro League clubs is therefore less aggressive as in previous transfer windows.

Al Ittihad were desperate to acquire the 31-year-old but their efforts were ultimately unsuccessful.

Salah is contracted until 2025 and would be available on a free in the event he doesn't pen another new deal with Liverpool or a club elsewhere.

Despite a fairly quiet campaign by his standards, he has scored 29 goals in 49 appearances in all competitions this season.

Former Manchester United captain Gary Neville had his say on the incident on his Sky Sports podcast, commenting: “Unpleasant when you see [that between] an amazing manager and an amazing player. I had that at Manchester United a few times.

“There's only one winner, but the problem is that the manager is leaving which helps Salah a little bit.

“I think there might be a bit of a problem if it were to carry on for the rest of the season. Two massive personalities and characters.”
