Liverpool’s talisman, Mohamed Salah, has claimed he and the Premier League club are “far away” from agreeing a new contract.
Salah was speaking to Sky Sports after starring in their 5-0 win over West Ham on Sunday.
The Egyptian scored one goal and set up two others at the London Stadium, as Arne Slot’s side moved eight points clear at the top of the Premier League.
Salah is now top among Premier League players for both goals and assists this season, with 17 and 13 respectively, but his future remains uncertain as he enters the final six months of his contract.
When asked if he was any closer to sharing a positive update on a new deal, Salah said: “We are far away from that. I don’t want to put something in the media and people start saying stuff, but nothing really has moved on. Now I am focused on the team and hopefully, we win the Premier League.”
