Mohamed Salah is reportedly on the verge of signing a new contract at Anfield after reaching a compromise with Liverpool. According to the Sunday Mirror, the Egyptian will sign a two-year deal to bring weeks of speculation to an end. The news will come as a massive relief to Liverpool fans, especially given the sort of form Salah has shown this season. Still by far and away the Reds’ best attacking player, it became increasingly clear that the club could ill-afford to let the 32-year-old leave for nothing, even if FSG has its doubts about signing up a player beyond…
Alan Shearer has issued a stark warning to Liverpool regarding Mohamed Salah’s contract saga, suggesting the Egyptian forward’s demands could land the club in “an impossible situation”. The former England skipper also rejected the notion of Salah simply dictating his terms amidst ongoing speculation about his future. Salah, whose contract expires at season’s end, is eligible to negotiate with non-English clubs from January 1, potentially leaving on a free transfer next summer. Despite netting twice in Liverpool’s recent 3-2 victory over Southampton, Salah disclosed to reporters that he hasn’t received a formal contract offer since joining from Roma in 2017.…

Liverpool icon Jamie Carragher has cast doubt over Darwin Nunez’s future at Anfield, suggesting the club might offload him next year. The Uruguayan forward, who arrived for a potential club-record fee of £85m from Benfica in 2022, has had a tumultuous time with the Reds, showing glimpses of brilliance but largely struggling to find his feet. With just three goals this season and facing criticism after a lacklustre performance in Liverpool’s 3-3 draw with Newcastle United, Nunez hasn’t quite lived up to expectations. Initially playing second fiddle to Diogo Jota, Nunez got his chance in the starting XI following Jota’s…
A late mistake from goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher meant that the Reds dropped two points. Despite Arsenal closing the gap on the league leaders, though, Shearer said the Gunners would still have to be “close to perfect” if they want to catch Arne Slot’s side: “Liverpool are favourites now for the Premier League title after their start to the season. It’s not all going to be perfection for them, though. They will have to answer some questions, like they did at Newcastle tonight.” “Arsenal are the closest to them and they are the ones that are going to challenge them. I…
Liverpool has proposed contract terms for Mohamed Salah, according to former Arsenal star and current Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson. Salah, whose future with the Reds has been the subject of intense speculation given that his current contract runs out next summer – along with team-mates Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold – has not let the uncertainty cloud his performance. Despite the contract chatter and Jamie Carragher’s critique of Salah’s “selfish” behaviour last month, after he discussed his negotiations, the Egyptian is powering through what could be one of his most remarkable seasons at Anfield. Salah’s priority is to…
Mourinho was appointed coach of the Turkish giants in June and after a difficult start to the season, that saw them dumped out of the Champions League qualifiers by Lille and beaten twice in the league, Fenerbahce, had found some impressive form to close the gap on leaders Galatasaray. But they came unstuck against fourth-placed Besiktas, who hadn’t won in five games, when Oxlade-Chamberlain settled the derby with a goal in the 73rd minute. It was his first of the campaign and left Mourinho raging with both the officials and the result. Speaking afterwards, he said: “We deserved at least…
Resuming Champions League duty after a rare weekend off, Liverpool head to the Iberian Peninsula to lock horns with La Liga upstarts Girona on Tuesday night. Arne Slot’s men remain the team to beat in Europe’s premier tournament after seeing off holders Real Madrid 2-0 on matchday five, thereby maintaining their perfect record as they sit top of the standings. The Reds were due to face off with Everton in the final Premier League Merseyside derby at Goodison Park on Saturday, but the match was postponed owing to Storm Darragh, giving Slot and co more time to plan ahead for…
The Sunday Mirror reports that a compromise has been reached by both parties in news that will come as a huge relief to millions of Reds fans around the world. Salah’s financial demands were never an issue in negotiations, rather it was the length of the extension that the two parties were far apart on. Liverpool was initially only willing to offer Salah a one-year renewal, while Salah wanted a three-year deal. Barring any last-minute hiccups, the Egyptian will end up penning a two-year contract at Anfield. When will Everton vs Liverpool be played after Storm Darragh forces postponement? Mohamed…
