Egyptian star Mohamed Salah's contract with English club Liverpool will end next summer, leaving his future uncertain. However, even if he decides to renew his contract with the Reds, a "unintended nightmare" awaits them. The Liverpool Echo reported that if Salah renews his contract with Liverpool, he will pose a new nightmare for the team in the upcoming period.
This "nightmare" concerns the Egyptian national team’s desire to call up Salah for the Paris 2024 Olympics, which will take place in July. The source explained: "If this is decided, the 31-year-old player will miss a significant portion of the preseason under new coach Arne Slot."
Egypt also wanted to call up Salah for the postponed Tokyo 2020 Olympics, which were held in July and August 2021, but this request was rejected by the club. However, the situation will be different this time, as the nightmare continues with the potential call-up for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations in 2025, which will also cause him to be absent from Anfield for an extended period.
