Mohamed Salah shared an Instagram story on Saturday evening featuring Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ibrahima Konaté, and Dominik Szoboszlai, sparking a frenzy among Liverpool fans.
The 32-year-old forward first filmed Konaté, 25, and Szoboszlai, 24, before turning the camera toward Alexander-Arnold, 26, who has been strongly linked with a move to Real Madrid this summer.
Recent reports suggest the right-back is close to securing a five-year deal with the Spanish giants, potentially leaving Liverpool on a free transfer. However, neither club has officially confirmed the move.
In the clip, seemingly filmed at a private residence, Alexander-Arnold was seen chatting with his teammates. The reason behind Salah’s decision to post the video remains unclear, but fans were quick to react on social media.
One fan questioned the timing of the post, saying, “That Instagram story from Salah is a bit strange. It probably means nothing, but… what if it does?”
Another added, “Salah loves his cryptic posts. Don’t dismiss it—he enjoys playing mind games with the media.”
A third speculated, “This has me wondering if Trent might actually stay. I thought he was leaving, but now I’m not so sure.”
A fourth fan suggested, “Salah doesn’t post anything without intention. That story could be a message to the club, hinting that contract talks are still far from settled.”
Meanwhile, a fifth jokingly commented, “Hope Mo made Ibou and Dom a steak but gave Trent a pot noodle.”
Amid the off-field drama, Arne Slot’s Liverpool side currently sit 12 points ahead of Arsenal at the top of the Premier League with nine matches remaining, making them strong contenders for their 20th league title. However, with Virgil van Dijk also out of contract this summer, the Reds could be facing a major squad rebuild ahead of the 2025/26 season.
