Mo Salah drops hint over Liverpool future as he sends farewell message to Jurgen Klopp ahead of Arne Slot’s arrival
MO SALAH has dropped a huge hint that he could stay at Liverpool beyond the summer.
The club legend has been linked with a move following manager Jurgen Klopp out the Anfield exit door.
Salah’s contact at Liverpool expires in June 2025 and there has been mega-money interest from Saudi Arabia.
He was the subject of a whopping £170million bid from Al-Ittihad last year.
And clubs based in the Middle East are set to come back in for him this summer, with speculation suggesting they are open to paying a world-record £200m for the star.
After the season came to a close on Sunday, Salah posted a picture on social media of him on the Anfield pitch with his two daughters Makka, 10, and Kayan, 4.
He then tweeted a farewell to Klopp despite the touchline row between the two at West Ham on April 27, which read: “It was great sharing all those trophies and experiences with you over the past seven years.
“I wish you the best of luck for the future and hope we meet again.”
Salah then followed it up with another post that appeared to hint at him staying at Liverpool for next season.
He wrote: “We know that trophies are what count and we will do everything possible to make that happen next season. Our fans deserve it and we will fight like hell.”

Arne Slot, who was confirmed as the club’s new boss today, will surely be hoping Liverpool keep their star man this summer.
The Dutchman has reportedly penned a three-year contract.
And Slot’s official announcement came after Klopp tried to start a chant for his successor during his farewell speech after Liverpool beat Wolves 2-0.
On his arrival, Klopp said: “You welcome the new manager like you welcomed me. You go all in from the first day. You keep believing. You push the team. I’m one of you now. I love you to bits.”
And Slot said during his Feyenoord goodbye: “It is certainly not an easy decision to close the door behind you at a club where you have experienced so many wonderful moments and worked successfully with so many wonderful people.
“But as a sportsman, an opportunity to become a head coach in the Premier League, at one of the biggest clubs in the world, is difficult to ignore.”
