What is the latest update on Mohamed Salah's future at Liverpool?

Mohamed Salah’s Liverpool Future in Doubt as Arne Slot Plans Crucial Talks

The future of Mohamed Salah at Liverpool has become a major talking point following his recent interview, which surfaced after he was left out of several Premier League matches under new manager Arne Slot.

The uncertainty deepened on Tuesday night when Salah was omitted from Liverpool’s UEFA Champions League victory over Inter Milan. The decision reportedly followed a joint agreement between the Liverpool hierarchy and Slot that the forward needed a short spell away from the team after his highly critical post-match interview following the draw against Leeds.

Salah Hints at Anfield Farewell

Adding to the drama, the Egypt international suggested that he would bid farewell to Anfield this Saturday before departing for Africa Cup of Nations duty on Monday. The comment immediately sparked speculation about whether his Liverpool future could be nearing an end or at least facing a temporary pause amid growing tension.

Slot Confirms Fresh Talks With Salah

Speaking to the media, Arne Slot confirmed that he plans to hold a decisive conversation with Salah, stressing that the outcome of that meeting will shape the immediate future.

“I will have a conversation with Mo this morning and the outcome of that conversation determines how it will look tomorrow,” Slot said.

“What I need is a conversation with him and the next time I speak about Mo should be with him and not in here. You can keep on trying but there’s not much more to say other than I will speak to him today and the outcome of that conversation determines how things will look tomorrow.”

Slot also revealed that discussions have been ongoing behind the scenes for much of the past week.

“We have spoken a lot in the last week. After the Sunderland game there were a lot of conversations between his representatives and ours, our representatives and him, between him and me, and today I will speak to him again,” he added.

All Eyes on Brighton Clash

With tensions still unresolved, football fans around the world will be watching closely to see whether Mohamed Salah is included in Liverpool’s squad for this weekend’s Premier League clash against Brighton.

As AFCON approaches and speculation continues to swirl, the outcome of Slot’s latest meeting with his star forward could prove pivotal both for Liverpool’s immediate plans and for Salah’s future at Anfield.
