Liverpool are yet to resolve the future of their best players ahead of the summer.
Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil Van Dijk are out of contract at the end of the season. All three have been vital to the club’s success this season. Liverpool have excelled on the field despite the news around the club. Since January, the club have received offers to sell Salah and Trent before the end of their deals. Saudi Pro League clubs offered huge money for Mohamed Salah. Real Madrid had a bid rejected for Trent Alexander-Arnold. Liverpool insisted on keeping the duo till the end of the season.
Their decision seems to have paid off so far. Liverpool are in contention to win the treble this season. The reds lead the Premier League with 13 points, and are still in the Champions League. Arne Slot can lift his first trophy of the season in the League Cup final against Newcastle.

Liverpool journalist reveals Mohamed Salah’s future
Salah has recently revealed that he wants to end the season with trophies. The 32-year old is determined to win the Premier League, Champions League and the Ballon d’Or later this year. He is on track to win multiple individual awards this year. Salah has 25 goals and 17 assists in the league so far. But the reds are aware that he might leave Anfield when his contract expires.
Liverpool journalist James Pearce has hinted that the Egyptian international could stay at Anfield. The prospect of continuing at the top level of football is strong factor for the forward. Pearce says Salah may not be ready to walk away from Europe just yet:
“With Salah we know there is strong interest from Saudi Pro League. I think that will come down to a straight choice from him. Does he want to stay at Liverpool and keep writing the record books or does he want to go to Saudi? I don’t think he’s ready to walk away from top level football.”
The reds face Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of their Round of 16 Champions League clash on Wednesday.
Reds’ star has always been clear
Since the start of the season, Mohamed Salah has been clear about his Liverpool future. He said from the start that he would like to continue his career, if only the club agreed to his demands. According to reports, Liverpool are still trying to make a deal with the 32-year old. But the club are also planning for his potential departure.
Many offers from the Saudi Pro League have been mentioned, but Salah is leaning towards staying in Europe. He wants to continue playing at the top level, and Liverpool fans will hope he remains at Anfield for the near future.
