Salah’s Future at Liverpool Hangs in the Balance

Manager Arne Slot to Hold Talks with Forward

Liverpool manager Arne Slot has confirmed that he will hold talks with Mohamed Salah to determine whether the forward will return to the squad for this weekend’s clash against Brighton. The decision comes after Salah was left out of Liverpool’s Champions League squad for Tuesday’s 1-0 win over Inter Milan, following a problematic interview in which he expressed his frustration with the club.

Salah’s Exclusion: A Temporary Measure or a Long-Term Decision?

Slot has reiterated his stance on Salah’s long-term future at the club, stating that he has no reason not to want him to stay. The manager has also emphasized that the outcome of the conversation with Salah will determine how things will look for the upcoming match against Brighton. This development offers a glimmer of hope for a positive resolution to the fractious episode that has been unfolding at the club.

Salah’s Recent Form and Future Plans

Salah has been an unused substitute in two of Liverpool’s last three league matches, with his most recent appearance coming as a substitute in the 1-1 draw at Sunderland on December 3. The forward is due to leave for the Africa Cup of Nations on Monday, and depending on how far Egypt progresses, he may not return to Liverpool until after the final on January 18. Salah has scored five goals in 18 appearances across all competitions this season.

Interest in Salah Remains Strong

Interest in Salah from Saudi Arabia remains strong, with reports reemerging that the club is still a target for clubs in the Gulf. However, Slot has repeatedly stated that his next conversation on Salah will be with the player himself, reflecting the intensity of the situation.
