Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah is set to become a free agent this summer, as no agreement has been reached over a contract extension at Anfield.
Despite being Liverpool’s standout performer this season — scoring 27 goals and providing 17 assists in 29 Premier League games — his future remains uncertain. His impressive form has been key in pushing Liverpool closer to another league title, and he continues to be a major factor in their Champions League ambitions.
Regarded by many as the best player in the world right now, Salah could soon be available for free, opening the door to new opportunities outside the Premier League leaders.
According to SPORT, Salah’s representatives have offered him to Spanish giants Barcelona. At the same time, his camp is in talks with Saudi club Al-Hilal, who are looking for a high-profile replacement for Neymar following his return to Santos.
While Al-Hilal has the financial muscle to secure Salah’s signature, Barcelona’s ongoing economic issues mean that signing him would likely require Salah to accept a pay cut — something still unclear if he’s willing to do.
Barcelona, under the leadership of Hansi Flick, are seeking a versatile attacker like Salah, capable of playing on both wings or as a central forward. His winning mindset and proven goal-scoring ability would make him a valuable asset to their squad.
Meanwhile, Liverpool risk making a huge mistake if they let Salah leave for free. Unless they present him with an irresistible offer, they could lose their star player. Reports also suggest that Liverpool are already preparing for life without Salah by searching for his replacement.
