To be honest with you, I don\u2019t think it\u2019s a bad outcome for Liverpool. <\/p>\n<p>MORE FOOTBALL INSIDER STORIES<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, of course, it\u2019s Mo Salah and he\u2019s been an amazing player for them for eight years. They were probably borderline in the summer as to whether to give him the contract or whether just to call it quits. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s similar in a way to City and Kevin De Bruyne probably, although Salah has looked in better shape maybe than Kevin De Bruyne. There was that belief that he could do another couple of years. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I suspect they always worked on the basis that maybe he would do one year and then they\u2019d sell him, so this is only bringing it forward perhaps six months.\u201d <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Mohamed-Salah-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Mohamed Salah in action for Liverpool\" class=\"wp-image-767328\" style=\"width:841px;height:auto\" \/>Credit: Imago<\/p>\n<p>Before extending his contract with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/arne-slot\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Slot<\/a>\u2019s side, there was talk earlier this year of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/mohamed-salah-could-get-stake-in-al-hilal-after-quitting-liverpool\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Salah receiving a stake in Al-Hilal<\/a> if he decided to move to Saudi. <\/p>\n<p>Liverpool could agree \u00a350m Salah deal<\/p>\n<p>Borson revealed Salah, who turned 33 in June, has probably cost Liverpool around \u00a315million for the first half of this season. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think where Liverpool may end up is a deal where okay, it\u2019s not been worth the first six months of this season, it\u2019s been expensive, it\u2019s probably cost them maybe \u00a315m more for this first half of the season, but he\u2019ll probably go and they\u2019ll get quite a sizeable fee, probably in excess of \u00a350m,\u201d said Borson. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is not a bad outcome on a purely business sense, and everybody will move on and Liverpool\u2019s rebuild to the extent that\u2019s what it is will continue.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Liverpool signed Salah from Roma in 2017, with the deal worth around \u00a334m for the Egypt international. <\/p>\n<p>For more Liverpool and exclusive news, follow us on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/insiderfootball\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a> or join our brand new <a href=\"https:\/\/whatsapp.com\/channel\/0029VaKxj144yltNlAd6Bd1Q\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">WhatsApp Channel<\/a> for instant updates to be sent straight to your phone. <\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"(Credit: Imago) Sun 14 December 2025 8:00, UK Mohamed Salah\u2019s future at Liverpool remains up in the air&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":315452,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[218,708,2227,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-315451","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-football","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-liverpool","10":"tag-mohamed-salah","11":"tag-sports","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom","14":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/315451","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=315451"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/315451\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/315452"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=315451"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=315451"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=315451"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
