Mohamed Salah’s comments have sparked speculation about his future at Liverpool, potentially putting Chelsea on high alert. The Egyptian star, who has been in fine form with three goals and three assists in his last few games, is in the final year of his contract with Liverpool. After Liverpool’s victory over Manchester United, Salah revealed that no discussions have taken place regarding a contract extension, suggesting this could be his final season at Anfield.
Salah, who previously played for Chelsea between 2013 and 2015, hinted at a possible reunion. He told Sky Sports that while he had a good summer and tried to stay positive, he’s aware that this could be his last season with Liverpool. He admitted that the club hasn’t approached him about renewing his contract, so he’s focused on enjoying his football this season and will reassess his options afterward.
Chelsea, known for capitalizing on uncertain situations at rival clubs, could potentially sign Salah on a free transfer next summer. The Blues have shown their willingness to strike deals with Premier League rivals, as seen with their recent agreements to bring in Jadon Sancho from Manchester United and Joao Felix back from Barcelona.
Although Salah’s loyalty to Liverpool might rule out a move to Manchester, a switch to Chelsea or another London club seems plausible, given his openness to staying in the Premier League.
