Salah says he is ''more out than in'' at Liverpool as he enters final months of contract

Liverpool's Mohamed Salah hints at departure due to contract uncertainty, raising doubts about his future with the club.

Mohamed Salah has raised doubts about his Liverpool future, saying he is yet to be offered an extension to his contract, which expires at the end of the season.

Salah spoke out after scoring two goals in Liverpool’s 3-2 win over Southampton on Sunday (November 25, 2024) and suggested he is more likely to leave than stay with the Premier League leader.

“Well, we are almost in December, and I haven’t received any offers yet to stay in the club,” he told reporters.

“I’m probably more out than in. You know 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,” he said.

Salah’s goals saw Liverpool extend its lead to eight points at the top of the standings. The Egypt international is 32 and has been at the club since 2017. He has scored 12 goals in 18 appearances this season.

Salah gave a rare interview to English print media before boarding the team bus after the Southampton game and expressed his frustration about the lack of progress with his contract.

“I’m not going to retire soon so I’m just playing, focusing on the season and I’m trying to win the Premier League and hopefully the Champions League as well. I’m disappointed, but we will see,” he said. “I’m very professional. Everybody can see my work ethic. I’m just trying to enjoy my football, and I will play at the top level as long as possible. I’m just doing my best because this is who I am, and I try to give it all for myself and for the club. We will see what happens next.”
