News about Mohamed Salah's "fantastical" demands during negotiations for his new contract with Liverpool has caused a stir in the football community, but local sources have revealed the truth. Global media reported that Mohamed Salah was asking for a salary of £500,000 a week from Liverpool, which would make him the highest-paid player in England and the highest-paid in Liverpool's history. However, the "Liverpool Echo," which is close to the club, confirmed on Monday that its private sources indicated that this "fantastical" figure is incorrect.
The newspaper stated that Salah is indeed negotiating with Liverpool for a new contract, but he is not asking for a salary of £500,000 a week. The report added that negotiations between Liverpool's management and Salah's representatives are ongoing. Salah's contract with Liverpool is set to expire in the summer of 2023, and the 29-year-old currently earns £200,000 a week.
