Liverpool nears Mohamed Salah contract extension

Mohamed Salah is reportedly close to signing a new contract with Liverpool, putting to rest months of speculation about his future. As his current deal is set to expire in June, there were concerns he might leave for a lucrative offer in Saudi Arabia, but sources indicate Liverpool officials are growing increasingly confident that he will remain with the club. Salah has had an impressive season, scoring 32 goals and providing 22 assists in all competitions, which has contributed to Liverpool's strong position at the top of the Premier League. Additionally, teammate Virgil van Dijk is also in talks to extend his contract, further solidifying Liverpool's core players. The club remains hopeful that both players will commit to new deals, which is crucial for their future plans. Any potential exit for Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid adds urgency to these contract negotiations.
