He said while speaking to Sky Sports, “Honestly, it’s in my head. Until now this is the last City game I will play for Liverpool so I was just going to enjoy it. The atmosphere was incredible so I will enjoy every second here. Hopefully, we just win the league and will see what will happen. “Well, we are almost in December and I haven’t received any offers yet to stay in the club, so, I’m probably more out than in. You know now I have been in the club for many years. There is no club like this.“
“But in the end, it is not in my hands. As I said before, it is December and I haven’t received anything yet about my future. I love the fans. The fans love me. In the end, it is not in my hands or the fans’ hands. Let’s wait and see. Of course [no offer is disappointing], yeah“, He added.
Liverpool are at the top of both the Premier League and UEFA Champions League points table and are having a dream run since Arne Slot has taken over reigns of the club. Mohamed Salah has given a lot services to Anfield and the management may initiate some talks to avoid his exit from the club.
