Liverpool’s promising start to the season under Arne Slot could play a key role in persuading Mohamed Salah to remain at the club. The Reds currently sit four points clear of second-placed Chelsea at the top of the Premier League, with a game in hand, showcasing their strong title credentials.

Securing the futures of key players like Trent Alexander-Arnold, 26, and Virgil van Dijk, 33, will also be crucial for Liverpool’s long-term success. Their leadership and influence on the pitch are vital to maintaining the club’s momentum.

Last month, Salah expressed his frustration over not having received a new contract offer at that time, adding an element of urgency to the ongoing negotiations.

After Liverpool’s victory over Southampton, Mohamed Salah spoke to a small group of reporters, expressing uncertainty about his future at the club. He stated: *”We’re almost in December, and I still haven’t received any offers to stay. At this point, I’m probably more out than in.

“I’ve been at the club for many years, and there’s no place like it. But ultimately, the decision isn’t in my hands. As I mentioned, it’s already December, and I haven’t heard anything about my future yet.

“I love the fans, and they love me, but this isn’t something either of us can control.”*

Salah has made an indelible mark at Liverpool, scoring 226 goals in 370 appearances. During his time at Anfield, he has been instrumental in securing major trophies, including the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, and two League Cups.
