Mohamed Salah is hopeful of staying at Liverpool despite links to a potential free transfer away next summer, according to reports.
Salah confirmed he is staying at Anfield for next season, but his contract expires in summer 2023, meaning he could walk away from the Premier League club for nothing - with clubs outside England able to negotiate with him from January.
But as claimed by the Liverpool Echo, the Egyptian forward is optimistic there will be a breakthrough in contract talks with club owners Fenway Sports Group.
Reds star Salah is thought to be settled in the north-west of England and happy to stay at a club where he has enjoyed much success - if they give him the new and improved terms he feels he deserves.
The Echo reports contract talks between Salah's circle and Liverpool have not happened in person since December as the club took a uniform policy of halting all ongoing contract talks to focus on the season.
But now the quadruple-chasing campaign is over, negotiations could begin again for all the stars whose futures are uncertain - including Salah, fellow forwards Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino, and midfielder Naby Keita.
Sportsmail reported on Wednesday that Salah is thought to want to remain in the Premier League if he cannot agree a new deal with Jurgen Klopp's side.
There is said to be a 'vast disparity' between the two camps, with Salah, 29, believed to want to become the sixth-highest paid player in the world.
Some fans reacted angrily to the news, urging the club to sell their star man in response to his demands.

I'd say winning 3 trophies is closer to winning 4.

For those fans or even some of Liverpool jealous fans who say “no player is bigger than the club” I say to them “Salah is not bigger than Liverpool, but bigger than his current wage” .. a benchmark of players like Salah’s level is double Salah’s wage now

After a Premier league and UCL... why not? Man U has players earning way more with Europ league title ...no EPL or even UCL games to loom forward too...
it's fair enough but the salary gaps among the squad could lead to chaos.

I see another 30 years loading because of stinginess. In today football, don't expect to keep your best players if you can't pay them huge money.

Salah and Mane deserve better treatment from what they getting from Liverpool which is know to be a selfish football club. This is a club that puts little or no effort in improving the contracts of their best players to retain their services. If they think that Salah and Mane can be replaced with ease they are in for a rough ride to discover otherwise! Liverpool are about to fall back behind Man City if they start losing their best players especially Salah and Mane.

It is Liverpool that is Selfish. Don't be biased! If you are the one who is being undervalued and underpaid for ur work as an employee what would be ur reaction?? Common be reasonable! Salah deserves better for his efforts in the team.

The only team to come close to a Quadraple is Man City when they won the EPL, the FA and the Carabao cup. But that's a story for another day

Without salah mane and Holland with City, Liverpool has to wait another year for becoming EPL champion. Luis diaz is fine but not extraordinary.
