Mohamed Salah Rejects Liverpool Contract Extension

Liverpool’s talisman, Mohamed Salah, has reportedly turned down a new contract offer from the club. According to Masrawy (Egypt), the Egyptian forward rejected the deal due to the club’s demand for a pay cut in exchange for a multi-year commitment. This has raised concerns about Salah’s future at Anfield, with speculation growing that Liverpool might lose one of their key players.

To address their defensive needs, Liverpool are accelerating their interest in Ajax defender Jorrel Hato. According to TEAMtalk, the Reds are looking to bring forward plans to sign the young defender in January to avoid losing out to rival clubs.
