What was set to be one of the biggest soap operas of the upcoming summer transfer market is getting closer to finding a solution. Mohamed Salah had publicly acknowledged that he had one foot out of Anfield Road, as his contract expired at the end of the season and Liverpool had not yet made him a renewal offer.
These words triggered the interest of the continent's big clubs, including FC Barcelona, in the player, and also set off alarm bells on the red side of Merseyside, where they immediately took action at the possibility of losing their star player at zero cost.
Salah will be the highest paid player in the Premier League
In this regard, Haytham Farouk, commentator for beIN Sports and former teammate of Salah, reported that the striker and the team led by Arne Slot have reached an agreement to extend their contract for three more seasons, until 2028, with a salary that would make the player the highest paid player in the Premier League.
The Egyptian would earn a record 423,000 euros per week, which would put him at the top of the league's pay scale. Although nothing is official yet, it seems only a matter of time before Liverpool announce the continuation of their star player, who this season has scored 13 goals and provided 8 assists to make the 'reds' one of the best teams of the season.
