Liverpool have ruled out the sale of Mohamed Salah this summer even if he leaves as a free agent afterwards

Mohamed Salah will stay at Liverpool this summer regardless of the eventual outcome of his contract situation with the club. Salah’s contract expires after the end of the next season with the potential of him leaving as a free agent.

The Egypt captain continued his prolific career with the Reds despite the concern about his age and regression in athleticism. Salah has struggled with pace and agility which forced him to change his style of play for Liverpool last season.

Instead of relying on his usual pace and agility, the 32-year-old used linkup play with his teammates and his technicality. Salah continued to score goals and enjoyed more contributions with assists, showcasing his playmaking abilities and creative qualities on possession.

The Egypt international made 44 appearances for Liverpool last season, contributing 25 goals and providing 14 assists in all competitions. Salah’s late drastic dip in form and struggle with injury overshadowed his prolific contribution last season, dividing the Reds fanbase.

Many Liverpool fans voiced concern about his form and lack of contribution in the overall play when he struggled. Meanwhile, his ardent followers defended the Egyptian while highlighting the consistency and proficiency he has provided since joining the club.

According to the Mirror, Liverpool have ruled out selling Salah even if it means that he leaves for free. The 32-year-old has a pivotal role to play as Arne Slot succeeds legendary manager Jurgen Klopp at Anfield.

Liverpool cannot afford to lose too many established leaders at the club as they usher into the new era. Saudi Arabian clubs have consistently indicated a massively lucrative price tag, demonstrating their well-established admiration for Salah.
