Damien Delaney expects Liverpool to offer Mo Salah a two-year contract

Damien Delaney expects Liverpool to offer Mo Salah a two-year contract

Mo Salah’s contract with Liverpool expires in the summer of 2025, but it is expected that discussions are taking place behind the scenes about a possible extension.

That is the expectation of Damien Delaney, who speculated that the Reds would consider a possible two-year deal for their talismanic winger.

“Look, his numbers are incredible. I really sincerely hope he plays for Liverpool next season.” the former Crystal Palace star said Virgin media sport.

‘But there has to be a compromise with his age, the amount of money he earns and the length of his contract. Because a fall at that age can be quite serious, it comes very quickly. He’s 32 now – he might get another year, 18 months or two years from him.

“I think Liverpool are probably behind the scenes offering him a two-year contract. But at his age he wants four. That’s a stumbling block because Liverpool can’t give him four years for that kind of money because you’d be in a difficult situation.” situation.”

The Egypt international has made a fantastic start to the 2024/25 season, scoring 11 goals in nine appearances (in all competitions).

Far from bad numbers from a 32-year-old footballer that some speculated were on the decline (Air sports) after the previous campaign.

In any case, it is clear that Liverpool are or will soon be in contract talks with Mo Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Whether all three will agree to new terms at Anfield obviously remains far from clear at this time.

The Reds captain has already made clear his desire to continue beyond the 2025 expiry date.

However, things enter murkier waters when we look at Alexander-Arnold’s contract future. It is no secret that Real Madrid are monitoring the full-back’s situation.

Similarly, with Liverpool’s Egyptian king, the threat of the Middle East and a mega contract offer from a Saudi Pro League team cannot be discounted.

The Reds have time to seal the futures of all three key players, but the clock is ticking.
