Major development in Mo Salah transfer saga as previously unknown Liverpool contract details emerge

A major development in Mohamed Salah's Liverpool contract saga has emerged amid intense transfer speculation.

Salah is out of contract at the end of the season, with a report suggesting he's 'open talks' with a European giant ahead of a free transfer.

He's been vocal about his contract situation as he enjoys an ultra-prolific campaign, having scored an impressive 13 goals across all competitions, including a strike against Manchester City in his side's 2-0 victory last weekend.

Salah's approach hasn't gone down well with Jamie Carragher, who branded the superstar player 'selfish' before hitting out at his post-match interview on Sky Sports.

A day removed from the 32-year-old's heroics against Man City, The Athletic claim the Reds star would accept a new one-year contract at Anfield but is 'growing increasingly exasperated at the club's handling of the negotiations'.

His priority is to extend his spell with Liverpool, and he is 'not agitating to leave'.

However, he believes he is amongst the best players in the world and wants terms to reflect that status.

The Egyptian's current deal makes him the highest-paid player in the club's history.

In 2022, he agreed a three-year contract extension that was widely reported to be worth a whopping £350,000-a-week in basic salary.

But, per the report, Salah 'earns well in excess of that' figure.

Speaking after Liverpool's big win over Man City, Carragher claimed Liverpool 'is not built on giving people what they want' as he shared his thoughts on Salah's contract situation.

"We know Liverpool as a club are run by data, so you can't actually say we're delighted Michael Edwards is back and the data people are back because that fell away at the end of Klopp's time here," he explained on Sky Sports.

"It's a moneyball situation and we're delighted that's back but on the other hand say give someone what they want, you can't do that. These two, Van Dijk and Salah, if Liverpool do have a rule such as only giving players over 30 a certain length contract, you have to move the data for players like that.

"I'm not saying he shouldn't get a two-year deal, I'm not saying he shouldn't be on big money - he's on big money now and rightly so - but this idea and this saying of 'give him what he wants', this club is not built on giving people what they want, that's why there is success at the club.

"Being ahead of the game, buying Mo Salah for £40m when nobody else in the Premier League looked at him, because Liverpool were ahead of the game."
