A little about the topic
The Liverpool manager is hopeful his new contract with the Reds could be a positive sign for Mohamed Salah in his own renewal talks with the club. The Reds announced that Jurgen has committed to new terms that will keep him at Anfield until 2026 on Thursday, two years after his previous deal expired. Liverpool have enjoyed great success under Jurgen Klopp, who has made many astute signings during his six-year reign, including an Egyptian player from Roma in 2017.
What did Jurgen say about Mohamed Salah?
Mohamed has scored 155 goals in 247 appearances for Liverpool since joining, helping the club win the PL, the Champions League and the League Cup. Liverpool could end the campaign with an unprecedented quad, but the Egyptian striker’s contract is due to expire next summer and he has yet to reach an agreement on an extension.
Asked if his new deal could affect Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah to extend their stay at Anfield, the Liverpool boss said in a press conference that it was more a question for the boys, what exactly does that mean for them, but all is well, his relationship with them is great.
According to Jurgen Klopp, his point is that there are more important things in life to think about, not only who is the manager, but knowing who the manager and the coaching staff is is an important thing, because when they know that they have with other clubs where they could go, they don’t know for sure.
It’s not 100 per cent in this business, but Klopp thinks it’s pretty likely he’ll stay a little longer because there are other coaches at other clubs. The German thinks that everything is clear that he is at this moment.
If that’s a positive sign for the boys, great, but Klopp doesn’t think it’s going to be one decisive thing for any decision they want to make. Jurgen Klopp says it’s their own life, but they just wanted to ensure that everyone who wants to be here knows what to expect.
