Liverpool have taken Salah's complaint at AS very seriously. The Egyptian offered an exclusive interview where he surprised with opening the door to Real Madrid and Barcelona and manifested a certain disagreement with his club, especially after not being captain in the last match of the group stage of the Champions League. His words and the positioning of Real Madrid have been quickly answered. Goal has consulted the Mersey club, who has confirmed that he is already preparing to scratch his pocket. Liverpool, who believe that Salah cannot have sports complaints after the successes of the Klopp team, understand that it is more because of their economic situation compared to that of other Premier stars.
Thus, the Egyptian is the highest paid of the team with just over 12 million annually, but is still far from the salaries that the stars of the Manchester teams manage. Los De Gea (23), De Bruyne (19), Sterling (18), Pogba (17) … Salah's current contract expires in 2023, but Liverpool does not want to let a long time pass and has perfectly understood the message that He has sent him his star.
Salah will turn 29 at the end of this season and Liverpool's intention, according to club sources to Goal, is to “continue at all costs.” Putting him a salary at the level of Manchester teams or at least close, would be a definite sign, they believe in Anfield. Of course, Salah's words in AS have caused panic in the English giant and he is looking for an immediate reaction.
Grealish, in case Salah says no
Meanwhile, in parallel, in Liverpool he monitors possible substitutes. According to the Mirror, the Anfield club, in the face of Salah's messages, is acting with prevention and has also gotten into the race for Grealish. A bid is already open for the Aston Villa star. Liverpool had not entered because they thought they would already have the quota covered, but if there are problems with Salah, they want to be prepared. Grealish would be the chosen one, according to the Mirror. Both Manchester teams have already expressed their interest in him. Its price, yes, would be around 100 million. Grealish recently renewed, but Aston Villa knows that behind him are already the most powerful clubs in the Premier.
