David James is assured that one Liverpool participant whose contract expires subsequent summer season will agree a brand new deal at Anfield within the close to future.
Mo Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk are all set to change into free brokers in 9 months’ time as issues stand, though the previous Reds goalkeeper has backed the Egyptian specifically to increase his keep on the membership.
As per Each day Star, the 54-year-old hit out on the ahead’s agent Ramy Abbas Issa after he took to social media final week to bemoan inaccurate reporting over his shopper’s contractual state of affairs.

James mentioned in response: “I feel if Mo Salah needed out of Liverpool, or he had his head turned by the opposite alternatives which are obtainable to him, and there might be loads, then I don’t assume you see a model of Mo Salah that we’ve seen to this point this season.
“We all know that he can earn enormous sums of cash by shifting elsewhere. Respectively, he might take a transfer to a type of locations and never have to supply the usual of efficiency that he does for Liverpool.
“What Mo’s doing, it seems like he might produce a season that could possibly be his greatest at Liverpool. That’s why I feel he’ll keep. He’s not slowing down; he’s going by way of the gears.”

We totally agree with James when he factors out that Salah’s performances for the reason that begin of the season aren’t these of a participant who’s determined to go away Liverpool, with the Egyptian scoring in every of our first three Premier League video games below Arne Slot.
We all know that Al-Ittihad got here in with a £150m provide final 12 months, and we will safely state that that the participant gained’t be wanting suitors hoping to pounce on the contractual uncertainty at Anfield, however none of that seems to have knocked a breeze out of the 32-year-old.
If our quantity 11 is raring to stay with the Reds past subsequent summer season, he’s going the appropriate approach about making use of strain on the membership’s hierarchy to come back to the desk with a contract provide. To not accomplish that when he’s in such flying type and has been so prolific for LFC could be incomprehensible.
Till such time that Salah’s future is sorted, the discourse will inevitably proceed. It’s been slightly below three weeks now for the reason that switch window shut, so we’d wish to assume that Richard Hughes is within the strategy of persuading him, Trent and Van Dijk to extend their respective stays at Liverpool.
