Troy Deeney has shared his thoughts on Mohamed Salah’s future at Liverpool after selecting the Egyptian star in his BBC Sport Team of the Week.
The former Watford striker praised Salah’s continued impact at Anfield but also speculated on what lies ahead for him, amid ongoing transfer rumors. With interest from Saudi Arabian clubs persisting, Salah’s long-term stay at Liverpool remains uncertain.
Deeney acknowledged Salah’s importance to Jürgen Klopp’s side, highlighting his consistent performances and goal contributions. However, he also suggested that Liverpool may soon face a tough decision regarding the forward’s future.
Salah, who remains a key figure for the Reds, has been linked with a potential move away, with speculation growing over whether he will remain at the club beyond this season.
Mohamed Salah continued his outstanding 2024/25 season with a match-winning performance on Saturday, scoring both goals in Liverpool’s 2-0 victory over AFC Bournemouth. The Egyptian forward now boasts an impressive tally of 25 goals and 17 assists in 33 appearances across all competitions. He currently leads both the Premier League Golden Boot and Playmaker award races.
Despite his stellar form, uncertainty still surrounds Salah’s future, as his contract is set to expire at the end of the season. The 32-year-old has repeatedly expressed his desire to remain at Anfield, while Liverpool’s new manager, Arne Slot, recently reaffirmed his intention to keep Salah at the club. However, with no contract extension confirmed yet, speculation about his next move continues.
