Liverpool, April 11
After months of rumours and speculations, Liverpool fans can breathe a sigh of relief as Mohamed Salah has put pen to paper on a new deal that will keep him at the club till 2027.
When asked what role he had in Salah’s extension, head coach Arne Slot revealed that Salah’s decision had to do with him having belief the club will continue to fight for titles.
"I am part of that process but I don't think I deserve the compliment. First of all, it's Mo's choice and his agent's choice what he wants. And second of all, the club, FSG, Richard (Hughes) and (chief executive) Michael Edwards all put in a lot of effort for him to extend.
"Effort mostly means money! But also effort, not only money. But what it might tell you is that we not only want a good season this season but we also want to make a good season next season as well. And Mo is convinced that there is a fair chance we are able to do so. That's a positive for us," said Slot in a press conference.
