Mohamed Salah and Liverpool seem to be deadlocked concerning the renewal of the Egyptian contract, which expires at the end of the current season. According to a sports article, the Liverpool star, Mohamed Salah, proposed to Barcelona, but a transfer will only be possible if he accepts a significant drop in salary.
In recent weeks, it has been reported that the sports director of FC Barcelona, Deco, wanted to recruit Luis Diaz, Salah teammate in Liverpool, whom the club's sports department considers the ideal choice to complete the left side of the attack.
Barça preferential choice?
It now seems that the recruitment of Salah is a more realistic option for all the parties concerned. However, the transfer would only materialize if the 32 -year -old accepted a drop in salary. Currently winning nearly 18 million euros per season, Salah is among the best paid players in the Premier League. But he will have to settle for a reduced salary in Catalonia due to the financial constraints of FC Barcelona.
Salah granted an interview to the legend of Liverpool, Steve McManaman, last month, where he apparently hinted that his passage to Anfield was coming to an end. “I want supporters to remember that I have given everything. I gave everything to the city. I was there, I was not lazy, I just enjoyed my football and I gave everything. I think that's it, the city: they give you love and you have a link with them because you give your all. I just want them to remember that I was there for eight years and that I gave everything. »»
Liverpool supporters will have to wait before hearing the official news about the future of their star and club legend. In the meantime, the former winger of Roma and Chelsea will be in action in the final of the EFL Cup against Newcastle on Sunday March 16, after having faced PSG in the round of 16 return from the Champions League on Tuesday evening.
