Liverpool owners FSG face second contract battle on top of Mohamed Salah

While the noises over Mohamed Salah potentially extending his stay at Liverpool have been more encouraging in recent weeks. it is a situation that remains unresolved.

The tone appears to have softened and comments from the likes of the Egyptian sports minister Ashraf Sobhi, who claimed Salah had told him he intended to stay at Liverpool, as well as Reds boss Jurgen Klopp's continued calmness over the situation have helped ease some worried minds after Salah's agent, Ramy Abbas Issa, had attempted to whip up something of a frenzy with his cryptic emojis in the aftermath of Klopp's claims that the club had done what it could and that the ball was now in the court of the 29-year old Salah.

With the market options more limited through Barcelona's financial issues, Real Madrid's continued pursuit of Kylian Mbappe, a near civil war going on at Paris Saint-Germain and the likelihood that Salah wouldn't move to another Premier League team for financial or competitive reasons, there will be an air of confidence that a deal with Salah can be reached.
