According to the British "Daily Mail", the 29-year-old Liverpool striker Salah is currently seeking to sign a long contract with the club. However, Salah himself has a very big premise for the renewal of the contract, and he hopes that the team can meet his requirements before he agrees to the renewal.
It is reported that Salah has been negotiating a contract extension with Liverpool this season, and his original contract will expire in the summer of 2023. Salah's form has remained outstanding this season and the team's management hopes to extend his contract until 2025 to ensure the Egyptian striker's peak is spent with the Reds.
In response to the renewal of Salah's contract, Reds coach Klopp revealed that the club has had a very good dialogue with the players themselves. However, according to the Daily Mail, Salah has put forward a premise for the renewal of the contract, that is, he hopes that Liverpool can sign another heavyweight striker in the summer window next year. The Egyptian striker believes that mane and Firmino are no longer at their peak except for him in the past trident, and Jota is not the heavyweight striker he thinks he is. If you continue to rely on such a front line to compete for the league and the Champions League, Salah himself does not have much confidence.
Liverpool are now linked to Haaland and Porto winger Luis Díaz, which has given Salah the possibility of fulfilling his wish. However, since Salah's request has been exposed by the media, it means that Mane, Firmino and Jota also know Salah's dissatisfaction with them. This may have some not-so-good effects on Salah's subsequent locker room.
Previously, Salah had a soft word about coach Klopp because the interim captain was Arnold and not himself. Now that the African Cup of Nations is about to start, Salah is also determined to participate in this competition, which makes the Reds top brass very dissatisfied. After all, the epidemic situation is grim today, and Salah's risk of participating in the Africa Cup of Nations will also affect the club's interests.
In short, judging from the Reds' current squad, they do need to make changes on the front line, but Salah has made this matter clear and did not take into account the feelings of other teammates, which is likely to adversely affect the Reds locker room in the second half of the season.
