Mohamed Salah is reportedly nearing a contract extension with Liverpool, as talks between the club and the Egyptian star continue to progress positively. The Premier League leaders are said to be increasingly confident that Salah will remain at Anfield beyond this season.
The 32-year-old forward, whose current deal expires at the end of the season, is not the only big name facing a contract decision — teammates Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold are also nearing the end of their terms.
While Alexander-Arnold has been linked with a possible free transfer to Real Madrid, Van Dijk recently confirmed that discussions over a new deal are underway. No formal agreements have been finalized, but the mood around Salah and Van Dijk’s futures is reportedly optimistic.
Salah remains a key figure for Liverpool, currently leading the Premier League scoring charts with 27 goals this season. Since joining from Roma in 2017, he has netted 243 goals in 394 appearances for the Reds and has played a crucial role in their recent success.
During his time at Liverpool, Salah has lifted eight trophies, including the Champions League and the Premier League title that ended the club’s 30-year wait in 2020. A two-time African Footballer of the Year, he has been linked with a high-profile move to Saudi Arabia, but has consistently stated his desire to stay on Merseyside.
Last November, Salah admitted he was “probably more out than in” when asked about his future, and the following month described a potential new deal as “far away.” However, the latest developments suggest both sides are moving closer to an agreement that would see the club legend continue his Anfield legacy.
