Mohamed Salah insisted he is not concerned about his Liverpool future despite entering the final year of his contract at Anfield.
Salah has been a linchpin of Liverpool’s success since joining the club from Roma in 2017 but faces questions over his long-term future at the club.
The Egypt winger has less than a year to run on his three-year deal, which he signed in 2022 and has yet to enter formal talks over an extension.
The 32-tear-old was the subject of major transfer interest last summer, with Liverpool rejecting a £150 million offer from Saudi Pro League side Al-Ittihad, but Salah has insisted that, right now, his focus is solely on this season.
‘I don’t think much [about the future] to be fair,’ he said in an interview with Sky Sports.
‘The more I think with time there is more wisdom, I would say. I just came for a season and I said: “OK, I have one year left, so let’s just enjoy. Don’t think about the contract, don’t think about anything and really just enjoy it.”
‘I don’t want to think about next year, I don’t want to think about the future, I just [say]: “OK, let’s enjoy the last year and we will see.”

‘Every week [being at my best] is the most important thing. Just take one day at a time and just be grateful to be here and that is it.’
Salah has started the season under new manager Arne Slot in superb form, notching up two goals and one assist in his first two games.
And ahead of their weekend clash with Manchester United, the winger says he is enjoying the Dutchman’s new-look style.
‘I enjoyed it before [under Jurgen Klopp] and I enjoy it now,’ he said.
‘We play kind of different football now . The manager wants to control all the time. With Jurgen sometimes it was just go, counter-press and try to attack them in their half.
‘But here we need to control the game, we slow the game down sometimes but it’s part of the plan and that’s a big difference.’
