David James is assured that one Liverpool participant whose contract expires subsequent summer season will agree a brand new deal at Anfield within the close to future.
Mo Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk are all set to grow to be free brokers in 9 months’ time as issues stand, though the previous Reds goalkeeper has backed the Egyptian particularly to increase his keep on the membership.
As per Every day Star, the 54-year-old hit out on the ahead’s agent Ramy Abbas Issa after he took to social media final week to bemoan inaccurate reporting over his shopper’s contractual scenario.

James stated in response: “I believe if Mo Salah wished out of Liverpool, or he had his head turned by the opposite alternatives which are accessible to him, and there shall be a lot, then I don’t suppose you see a model of Mo Salah that we’ve seen to this point this season.
“We all know that he can earn big sums of cash by transferring elsewhere. Respectively, he may take a transfer to a type of locations and never have to provide the usual of efficiency that he does for Liverpool.
“What Mo’s doing, it seems like he may produce a season that might be his finest at Liverpool. That’s why I believe he’ll keep. He’s not slowing down; he’s going by means of the gears.”

We absolutely agree with James when he factors out that Salah’s performances for the reason that begin of the season aren’t these of a participant who’s determined to go away Liverpool, with the Egyptian scoring in every of our first three Premier League video games beneath Arne Slot.
We all know that Al-Ittihad got here in with a £150m supply final yr, and we are able to safely state that that the participant gained’t be in need of suitors hoping to pounce on the contractual uncertainty at Anfield, however none of that seems to have knocked a breeze out of the 32-year-old.
If our quantity 11 is keen to stay with the Reds past subsequent summer season, he’s going the proper manner about making use of stress on the membership’s hierarchy to return to the desk with a contract supply. To not achieve this when he’s in such flying kind and has been so prolific for LFC can be incomprehensible.
Till such time that Salah’s future is sorted, the discourse will inevitably proceed. It’s been just below three weeks now for the reason that switch window shut, so we’d wish to suppose that Richard Hughes is within the strategy of persuading him, Trent and Van Dijk to extend their respective stays at Liverpool.
