Salah Signs New Liverpool Contract as Club Breaks Age Policy to Keep Him
Mohamed Salah has officially extended his stay at Liverpool, putting an end to the buzz around his future.
The club confirmed the new deal on Friday, calming fears among fans as the 32-year-old’s previous contract was set to run out this summer.
Top clubs like PSG and several teams in Saudi Arabia had shown interest, but Salah has chosen to stay with the Reds, signing a two-year deal reportedly worth £380,000 a week.
Interestingly, this move sees Liverpool’s owners, Fenway Sports Group, bending a long-standing rule. They’ve typically avoided handing out new deals to players over 30, but Salah’s importance to the team clearly tipped the scales.
Sources say negotiations had dragged on for a while as Salah and his agent, Ramy Abbas, pushed for better terms. He had initially asked for a three-year extension, and while he didn’t get that, FSG still made an exception to keep their star man at Anfield.
Liverpool have released a list of players who are confirmed to leave the club this summer.
The list includes star players Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson, and Ibrahima Konaté. While some players are leaving, others have been offered new contracts.
The players who have been offered fresh terms include Kyle Kelly, Afolami Onanuga, Oliver O’Connor, Lucas Pitt, Ben Trueman, Matthew Wright, Prince Cisse, and Keyrol Figueroa.
Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has urged Ademola Lookman to consider a move to Galatasaray.
It can be noted that Lookman recently completed a transfer to Atlético Madrid, and since then, many European clubs have shown interest in the player.
Osimhen then shared an encouraging message to the player, stating that he would be welcome at Galatasaray.
“We are waiting for you at Galatasaray. Come and be a part of this family.”
French footballer Kylian Mbappé has spoken on which player between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo will score more goals at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
It can be noted that the FIFA World Cup will begin on Thursday and will be co-hosted by the USA, Mexico, and Canada.
The player picked Lionel Messi to score more goals than Ronaldo during the tournament.
