Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) have reportedly opened discussions with Egyptian superstar Mohamed Salah over a potential free transfer when his contract with Liverpool expires at the end of the season. The 32-year-old forward has yet to begin talks over a contract renewal with the Merseyside club, sparking speculation about his future.
Salah, who has been a pivotal figure for Liverpool since joining in 2017, addressed the uncertainty surrounding his future following his team’s 2-0 victory over Manchester City in the Premier League at Anfield on Sunday. His comments suggested he is coming to terms with the possibility of leaving the club where he has achieved legendary status.
“Honestly, it’s in my head,” Salah admitted. “Until now, this is the last City game I will play for Liverpool, so I was just going to enjoy it. The atmosphere was incredible, so I wanted to savor every second here. Hopefully, we can win the league, and then we’ll see what happens.”
Despite his deep connection to the Liverpool faithful, Salah revealed his frustration at the lack of clarity over his future. “But in the end, it is not in my hands. As I said before, it is December, and I haven’t received anything yet about my future. I love the fans, and the fans love me. In the end, it is not in my hands or the fans’ hands. Let’s wait and see.”
Salah’s availability as a free agent next summer presents an enticing prospect for PSG, who are looking to bolster their attack. The Ligue 1 giants view Salah as a potential replacement for outgoing players and a key addition to their ambitions in Europe.
The Egyptian forward’s proven record in front of goal and leadership on the pitch would be a significant boost to PSG’s squad. If the deal materializes, it could mark one of the most high-profile transfers of the summer window.
Liverpool’s lack of urgency in addressing Salah’s contract situation has raised eyebrows among fans and pundits alike. The forward remains an integral part of Arne Slot’s side, and his departure would leave a considerable void. Salah’s openness about the situation may now pressure Liverpool’s hierarchy to initiate discussions before it’s too late.
