Mohamed Salah is in an impressive moment on an individual level. What happened this Sunday at Old Trafford is just a sample of the impressive present that the Egyptian lives. Now Liverpool must sit down to negotiate the player’s new contract and the figure that he intends to stamp his signature has been released.
Mohamed Salah’s contract expires on June 30, 2023, so Liverpool is obliged to negotiate with the Egyptian and close the deal before the end of this season. The last thing the Reds want is for Pharaoh to come out as a free agent, so the sports leadership has a tough job ahead of it.
Salah’s new Premier League record
The winger has already publicly signed that he wants to continue playing at Anfield, but given his great personal moment, it is clear that his salary claims are overwhelming. Mohamed Salah’s current salary is around 12 million euros per season, but given his excellent moment, he hopes to make a significant leap.
As reported by Football Insider, Mohamed Salah hopes that, with his renewal with the Reds, he will become the highest paid player in the Premier League. Currently, that title is held by Romelu Lukaku, who signed last summer with Chelsea in exchange for 27 million euros per campaign.
The figure that the Egyptian has in mind is 28.8 million euros per season to renew with Liverpool. It will be a tense negotiation between the club and the player, since the latter has all the arguments to demand such an amount from the English squad. The latter, on the contrary, are at risk of losing it for free if they do not renew. (Bolavip)
