Moreover, many pundits and fans often regard him as one of the best in the world. He recently netted his 150th goal for the Reds and moved in 9th position in the list of all-time Liverpool goalscorers.

Moreover, Ramy Abbas who is Mohamed Salah’s agent has been on the attack in recent days in an attempt to persuade Liverpool to raise their contract offer.
Fabrizio on Salah’s transfer
Reliable transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Liverpool owners are very much satisfied with their current wage structure. Also, they are not prepared to make Mo Salah an exception which in turn would imbalance their wage structure.
Speaking to Rio Ferdinand’s youtube channel FIVE, Romano said:
“They want to make him the best-paid player in the team but not with a crazy salary. Mo is not accepting that because if you look at other clubs in other countries too, and not just in the Premier League, not just at Manchester City, in other countries, players have crazy salaries and they are normal players,”
Mo is always playing, always delivering, playing all the top games in the season and never has serious injuries, and he wants an important contract. It’s the final top contract of his career, he is 30 [years old] now.”
He also stated that Salah is not looking for a transfer and is desperate to sort out the situation as soon as possible. Liverpool fans will be hoping that the Egyptian king will sign a new contract. However, only time will tell if Salah stays in Liverpool beyond the summer of 2023.
