Mohamed Salah |
Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah says he is “far away” from signing a new deal at the Premier League club.
Salah, 32, is out of contract at the end of the season and can enter negotiations with non-English clubs on 1 January over a free transfer once his deal expires.
The Egyptian scored his 20th goal of the season as Liverpool beat West Ham 5-0 at the London Stadium on Sunday to extend their lead at the top of the table to eight points. Asked about his future following the victory, Salah told Sky Sports: “No, we are far away from that (contract) and I don’t want to put anything in the media.”
“The only thing on my mind is I want Liverpool to win the league and I want to be part of that.” “I will do my best for the team to win the trophy. There are a few other teams catching up with us and we need to stay focused and humble and go again.”
Salah, club captain Virgil van Dijk and England defender Trent Alexander-Arnold are all out of contract at the end of the season. Liverpool boss Arne Slot says he is not concerned that the trio can, in theory, sign pre-contract agreements with foreign clubs from 1 January.
