Reports claim that Mohamed Salah has signed a new contract that will see him remain at Liverpool for the rest of his career.
Liverpool and Mohamed Salah appear to have come to a compromise deal that will see him earn £400,000-a-week wages, as The Mirror explains how the agreement has been reached. The 29-year-old had wanted £500,000 a week, but instead he will sign a four-year deal, rather than three, in order to make up for the shortfall compared to Cristiano Ronaldo’s salary.
The former Roma man was keen to see his contract reflect his recent rise to one of the world’s best players. Liverpool, however, did not want to disrupt their wage structure to keep him. Now, it is being reported that Mohamed Salah has agreed to sign a new Liverpool contract.
Salah will be 33 in four years and with his physique looking unimpeachably trim, he could well match both Cristiano Ronaldo and Robert Lewandowski for their twin excellence and longevity. While those are astonishing wages for almost everyone, he has in some ways earned parity with the other great strikers of the modern age.
