Liverpool legend Steve Nicol has slammed rumours linking Mohamed Salah with a move to Real Madrid this summer as a ‘wind-up’.
Salah’s contract expires in the summer of 2023 and the saga surrounding an extension remains at an impasse. When asked about the contract negotiations during the end of season run-in, Jurgen Klopp said that Liverpool 'cannot do much more' except wait for the forward's final decision.
The Reds are keen to reward the Egyptian for his continued outstanding contribution since arriving from A.S. Roma for £43.9million in the summer of 2017. Liverpool have extended the contracts of several players over the past year, including Jordan Henderson, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
