Paris Saint-Germain president Nasser Al-Khelaïfi has dismissed rumors linking Mohamed Salah to the club. In recent weeks, reports suggested that the Ligue 1 champions were targeting the Liverpool forward for a potential transfer next summer. However, in an interview with GiveMeSport, Al-Khelaïfi categorically denied any negotiations, reaffirming his respect for both Salah and Liverpool.
“I like Mohamed Salah, especially because he comes from our part of the world. I’m very proud of him for what he’s achieved in the Premier League with Liverpool. But we’ve never spoken to him,” said Al-Khelaïfi. The PSG president emphasized the importance of respecting Salah’s current contract, which runs until the end of the season, as well as maintaining good relations with Liverpool.
Salah, 32, has been in sensational form this season, fueling speculation about his next move. With his contract nearing its conclusion, the Egyptian has reportedly attracted interest from various clubs, including PSG. However, Al-Khelaïfi’s public comments suggest that the Parisian club has no intention of making a move for the prolific forward, despite his immense appeal on and off the pitch.
For PSG fans, this statement is likely to quell any lingering hopes of seeing Salah in the capital next season. While Al-Khelaïfi acknowledged Salah’s stature as a leading figure in football, he reiterated PSG’s focus on respecting contracts and avoiding unnecessary distractions. For now, Salah’s future remains firmly tied to Liverpool, leaving his next chapter open to speculation.
