Mohamed Salah’s Future at Liverpool Confirmed by Sayed Abdel Hafeez
Former Al-Ahly player and football director, Sayed Abdel Hafeez, has assured supporters that Mohamed Salah remains firmly committed to Liverpool.
Ongoing Transfer Speculations
Recent media narratives have suggested that an enticing proposal from the Saudi Pro League for Liverpool’s forward, Salah, is still under consideration as the league attempts to entice him away from the Premier League champions.
Current Performance Under Scrutiny
Critics have begun questioning Salah’s contributions to Liverpool’s ongoing season, particularly after he recorded only four goals and three assists in 13 matches, a stark contrast to his previous seasons. Last year, he completed the campaign with an impressive tally of 29 goals and 18 assists, helping the team secure the title, which raised expectations significantly.
Contract Situation and Media Speculation
Despite having inked a contract extension with Liverpool in April, whispers of potential departures have circulated. However, Hafeez has spoken to Sport Witness, indicating that a move away from the club seems improbable.
“Mohamed Salah is a significant figure who has achieved remarkable milestones, which many Arab players aspire to. His focus remains on his career,” Hafeez stated.
“The narrative linking Salah to Al-Ahly is primarily a creation of the media. He has represented Egyptian and Arab football honorably. Let’s be pragmatic; Salah renewed his contract with Liverpool a few months ago,” he added.
“There has been no official communication from Al-Ahly about this issue. It is merely a topic of media speculation. Our focus should remain on the team’s objectives. I wish Salah all the best,” he concluded.
Financial Considerations and Future Decisions
Even though Salah has recently extended his contract, some reports indicate that he has been presented with an annual offer of approximately £150 million, a proposal that could be challenging to decline as he approaches the age of 33. With Liverpool facing difficulties on the pitch, he might contemplate the proposition and consider his options at the conclusion of a season that might not yield any silverware.
