According to The Athletic, Salah’s latest contract, signed in 2022, established him as the highest-paid player in Liverpool’s history as he was handed a three-year deal that guarantees him a basic weekly salary of £350,000, with the potential to earn even more through performance-related bonuses. Factoring in his numerous endorsement deals, Salah’s weekly income would be close to £1 million.
At the time of his contract renewal, Salah was already attracting interest from Saudi clubs, especially as the country has begun to invest heavily in football through its Public Investment Fund (PIF). One such club, Al Ittihad, made headlines last summer when it attempted to secure Salah’s services with a bid of £150m.

Salah’s current contract at Anfield ends in 2025 and according to The Athletic’s report, although new Liverpool sporting director Richard Hughes has met with Salah’s agent Rammy Abbas to establish contact, there have been no formal discussions over extending the player’s lease.
Currently, he is more determined than ever to succeed as he understands that a good season could further increase his value and increase the demand for his services. Moreover, even as Liverpool assess Salah’s role under new manager Arne Slot, the forward is also eager to see how the club performs in the post-Jurgen Klopp era.
