Give Me Sports of the United Kingdom on the 26th (Korea time) 'Liverpool contacted Salah's agent. The conversation is positive,' it reported.
Salah surprised everyone by conducting a shocking interview about her recent renewal. Salah said in a post-league interview with Southampton just before that "probably more likely to leave than stay. I haven't received any offers yet. It's almost December, but I still haven't been offered to stay with the clubLiverpool still hasn't offered a contract renewal offer, he said.
Then "I knew I'd been on this team for a long time, so I didn't have a team like this. However, there was still no extension proposal. It's not in my hands. I love my fans, they love me, but it's not up to me, or them, to renew the contract.
I just do my best, I do everything for the club," he said, explaining the current situation and his thoughts on renewing the contract.
Also "Are you disappointed?" I'm disappointed. I have never received any offers from LiverpoolHe could not hide his disappointment with the club, which did not renew the contract.

Salah's growth continued after that. Salah, who played 367 games in Liverpool, scored 222 goals and 97 assists, and scored 167 goals and 75 assists in 266 games in the EPL, won the EPL Golden Boot three times (2017-2018, 2018-2019, 2021-2022) and was selected as the EPL Player of the Year in the 2017-2018 season. He has already made a name for Liverpool history as the third-highest scorer in Liverpool's career.
Salah, who overpowered Tottenham Hotspur in the 2018-2019 season, led Liverpool to its sixth European Champions League championship, and also led Liverpool to its first-ever EPL victory next season, has set such enormous records that he is considered one of Liverpool's best strikers. In the previous season, Salah also defended Liverpool's offense with 25 goals and 13 assists in 44 official matches. His performance is still strong this season. He has already surpassed 10 goals and 10 assists with 11 goals and 10 assists in 18 official matches.
However, Salah also said in September that `No one has talked to me about renewing the contract yet. That's why I'll think 'Yeah, this is the last year' and wait and see what happens after the season ends," he said once again that negotiations have not progressed despite mentioning the renewal of the contract.

Salah then has several options, including Saudi Arabia, European clubs, and U.S. Major League Soccer, and despite his remarks raising questions about the future, negotiations still seem to be better than Salah's hints. Liverpool still have misgivings about Salah, but given his age and salary, it is unlikely to be resolved quickly.
Earlier, Salah was reportedly offered a whopping £150 million (about 260 billion won) in annual salary by Saudi Arabia. However, he refused to do so last summer and stayed in Liverpool, and it seems that he has started a tug-of-war with Liverpool over these options since this summer. This is why this interview is likely to have been part of the renewal negotiation strategy rather than disappointment. If the strategy is true, it could be a much better situation than Son Heung-min, who has not received a renewal offer.
With Salah's interview, attention is being paid to whether he will renew his contract. Attention is also focusing on how the remarks will affect his renewal.
