Former Liverpool goalkeeper David James has slammed Mohamed Salah s agent for shouting his mouth off and is convinced the Reds star will sign a new contract at Anfield.
The Egyptian has been heavily linked with a move away for over a year with clubs in Saudi Arabia offering the forward huge sums of money to lure him from the Premier League.
that he s yet to be offered a new deal and his agent, Abbas Issa,.
He wrote on X: FYI all those ‘journalists’ who imply having ‘inside information’ about Mohamed’s future are making claims/posts based on absolutely nothing. Just click-whoring. “Sources close to Mohamed” don’t exist. This post is really just to tell you that they don’t know.
We re not entirely sure how that amounts to him shouting his mouth off but that s what James claims his representative has done, with the ex-goalkeeper adding that Salah wouldn t be producing such excellent performances under Arne Slot if he had had his head turned by interest from elsewhere.
: I don t think Salah’s agents’ comments are going to change anything about his situation or future at the club. An agent isn t going to get a better deal just by shouting his mouth off.
For me, I look at what Salah is producing in the shirt as a barometer to his desire and likelihood of signing a new contract. His first three performances were sensational he came back and looked better than we’ve seen him, and when you’re Mo Salah and you have his body of work, that is really saying something.
I think if Mo Salah wanted out of Liverpool, or he had his head turned by the other opportunities that are available to him, and there will be plenty, then I don’t think you see a version of Mo Salah that we’ve seen so far this season. We know that he can earn huge sums of money by moving elsewhere.
Respectively, he could take a move to one of those places and not have to produce the standard of performance that he does for Liverpool. What Mo’s doing, it looks like he could produce a season that could be his best at Liverpool. That’s why I think he will stay. He’s not slowing down; he’s going through the gears.
