Mohamed Salah, who won the game for Liverpool against Brighton, has given a daring update on his future at the club. In Saturday's 2-1 victory over the Seagulls, the 32-year-old was outstanding in the second half, scoring with a blazing strike and taking the game by storm.
It seemed like it was among the most significant events in Liverpool's season thus far and demonstrated once more how invaluable Salah is to the team. The Egyptian superstar gave the club a hint about his future while showcasing his winning mindset and boosting his team's title aspirations in a post on X on Sunday.
He said that, “Top of the table is where this club belongs. Nothing less. All teams win matches but there’s only 1 champion in the end. That’s what we want. Thank you for your support last night. No matter what happens, I will never forget what scoring at Anfield feels like.”
Although it's tempting to overinterpret Salah's most recent remarks, it seems like he's pressuring Liverpool to agree to a contract extension. He appears to be engaged in a never-ending game of cat and mouse with the club right now, and the photo he chose for the post is a clear attempt to convey how much the supporters love him.
His goal versus Brighton & Hove Albion and his overall play in the second half demonstrated why Liverpool must give him what he desires, and Arne Slot praised him following the match.
Is Mohamed Salah still the very best in the Premier League?
Salah has already scored seven goals and provided five assists in ten Premier League games this season, in addition to one and two during the Champions League. There aren't many players around the world who can consistently score goals in attack, and Liverpool needs their No. 11 to continue to perform at this level if they want to win the Premier League this year.
After a dramatic decline in form towards the conclusion of the previous season, some were ready to write Salah off, but it was evident that he was suffering from injury issues. Despite the fact that some of his lightning pace has now left him, he still looks excellent at 32.
