Salah is in his prime and in the best year of his life. He is carrying the entire Liverpool team and we can see it with his contribution to the team. He almost score in every game or assists so i think a new contract for him is a must and in Liverpool they know it. I think Saudi arabia teams are still far away from him
This is a good decision, just look if Liverpool is without Moh Salah in the match. Liverpool have more difficulties when facing big teams. This match can be an option for Arne Slot to have time to get a replacement for Moh Salah properly. So Liverpool did not take long to make adjustments when Moh Salah left. After the contract extension, Arne Slot had to immediately look for a character player like Moh Salah to prepare for the project when Moh Salah left. Arne Slot must make good use of the transfer market this season. There are some names that I think are good such as Khvicha Kvaratskhelia from Napoli and Jarrod Bowen from West Ham.
In the end Liverpool must be prepared if Mo Salah really leaves. The Red management has not yet responded to Mo Salah contract, meaning there is a possibility that they do not intend to extend it. Not because Liverpool does not need him, but Liverpool wants to try to go through a transition phase at the right time so as not to be left behind by other teams that have already done so.
