Liverpool star Mohamed Salah once again faced questions about his uncertain future following a stunning performance in Saturday’s 6-2 victory over Tottenham Hotspur. Salah delivered two goals and two assists during the match, helping Liverpool maintain their stronghold on first place in the Premier League after recent setbacks with consecutive draws.
The 32-year-old has now recorded 33 direct goal contributions in just 24 appearances across all competitions this season. However, his contract situation looms large, as Salah is set to become a free agent at the end of the campaign. With only days left before he is eligible to negotiate formally with overseas clubs, speculation continues to grow.
Last month, Salah expressed his frustration publicly, hinting he was “more out than in” due to a lack of contract offers at the time. He even suggested that Liverpool’s clash against Manchester City earlier in December might have been his “last game” at Anfield. Reports later emerged of an opening offer being made, but progress since then appears limited.

When asked for an update following the Spurs match, Salah kept his response brief. Speaking to Sky Sports, he simply said, “No, no,” when pressed on whether there had been any developments.
Despite the off-field uncertainty, Salah continues to break records. Against Tottenham, he became the first player in Premier League history to hit double digits in both goals and assists before Christmas in a single season. He also climbed to fourth place on Liverpool’s all-time scoring list with 229 goals, surpassing Billy Liddell. Salah is within striking distance of third-place Gordon Hodgson (241) and could realistically surpass Roger Hunt (285) if he commits to a new deal.
If Salah were to leave Liverpool in 2025, a move to a financially powerful club appears most likely. Paris Saint-Germain or a team in the Saudi Pro League are seen as frontrunners, given their ability to offer substantial wages and signing bonuses. Barcelona has also been linked but would face challenges due to ongoing financial constraints.
For now, Salah’s future remains an open question, but his remarkable form ensures he’ll remain a key player for Liverpool—at least for the rest of this season.
