This time next week, Mohamed Salah will officially be a free agent.Unless his future is resolved before then, the Egypt captain could find himself in the unusual position of contesting a World Cup knockout match without being tied to any club.There is little danger of Salah lacking suitors when his Liverpool contract expires on June 30, nor will finances be a concern for one of the world’s best-paid players. Yet the clock is ticking.Several high-profile players coming towards the end of their deals have already secured their next moves, while others are close to doing so. Salah, however, remains the standout name on the market, with no decision — or, at least, no public indication of one — yet forthcoming.Where he is going next is not yet known and as his agent, Ramy Abbas, said on X a fortnight ago: “Mohamed is doing perfectly fine and neither he nor I prefer to discuss sensitive future plans with people not involved in them.”
Mohamed is doing perfectly fine and neither he nor I prefer to discuss sensitive future plans with people not involved in them. Both he and I are very private about these things. Yes, people may ask and they may get a standard polite response but that’s about it.
