According to recent reports, Mohamed Salah has reportedly reached an “agreement in principle” with Liverpool over a new two-year contract.
Sources have informed British outlet, Football Insider that Salah has agreed a deal in principle with The Reds. However, despite progress in negotiations, a final agreement has yet to be reached due to ongoing discussions surrounding the 32-year-old forward’s image rights.
This issue appears to be the primary obstacle preventing Salah from officially committing to a new deal at Anfield.
The same sources have suggested that the player’s recent comments, where he stated that talks over a deal are “still far away” following Liverpool’s victory over West Ham, are believed to be part of a strategic approach by Salah and his representatives to apply public pressure on the club.
Despite this, optimism remains high within both camps that a resolution will be reached soon. If finalized, the deal would represent a significant boost for Liverpool, as the club continue their pursuit of domestic and European success.
