Mohamed Salah has spoken out over his Liverpool future amid speculation that Real Madrid are plotting a summer move to sign him.
Salah, who won both the Premier League Golden Boot AND Playmaker awards, is out of contract with Liverpool in the summer of 2023, which has left a question mark over his future at the club.
The Egyptian is understood to be on Real Madrid’s list of Kylian Mbappe alternatives, with the Frenchman having snubbed Los Blancos in favour of remaining a Paris Saint-Germain player.
However, Florentino Perez has been dealt a major blow in his efforts to prise Salah away from Anfield, with the player himself confirming that he’ll be at the club next season.

Salah refused to commit to Liverpool beyond that, so there appears to be a legitimate possibility that he leaves the club on a free transfer when his contract comes to an end.
By that point, Salah will be 31-years-old, so perhaps Liverpool are wary over giving him a contract with the salary that he is understood to be demanding in negotiations.
Sadio Mane could also be leaving Liverpool, perhaps as soon as this summer, so an era of supreme success could be coming to a close on Merseyside.
