Liverpool Make Call on Potential Salah Farewell Gesture

 

 

Liverpool have reportedly finalised their stance on whether Mohamed Salah will receive a farewell tribute, amid growing uncertainty surrounding the forward’s future before Saturday’s Premier League match against Brighton.

 

Arne Slot left Salah out of the squad for Tuesday’s impressive Champions League win away at Inter Milan, prompting Liverpool’s No. 11 to post a mysterious message on social media.

 

With strong interest from Saudi Arabia and MLS clubs, there is a real possibility that Salah has already played his last game for Liverpool. According to TeamTalk, the winger does not feel he owes anyone — including Slot — an apology. If accurate, this makes it highly unlikely that Salah will feature against Brighton. The outlet also claims Liverpool have told his representatives that he can link up with the Egypt squad early ahead of the Africa Cup of Nations.

 

But should Salah choose to attend the Brighton game to bid farewell to the Anfield crowd before a potential January exit, Liverpool have now decided whether such a moment will be acknowledged.

 

As reported by The Telegraph, the club will not stage any special send-off for Salah this weekend, even though this may be his final time at Anfield after a hugely successful eight-year career on Merseyside. This isn’t intended as a slight — rather, Liverpool want to avoid weakening their position in any upcoming transfer negotiations. A public farewell could signal to interested clubs that Salah’s chapter at Anfield is definitively closed, potentially reducing his transfer value.

 

As a result, Salah will not receive an official goodbye in front of the supporters after the Brighton match.

 

There remains a slim possibility that the situation could improve, but unless Salah delivers a genuine apology to Slot, his departure appears to be the most realistic outcome.
