One-of-a-kind Salah has prompted FSG to interrupt with conference
If the determine quoted by Mahmoud is certainly appropriate, then Salah would truly be getting a major enhance on his present wage, which Capology cites at £350,000 per week.
As Ornstein outlined, FSG are sometimes reluctant handy out profitable contract extensions to gamers approaching their mid-30s (the Egyptian turns 33 in June), however the phenomenal numbers that the ahead has been hitting ever since he got here to Liverpool in 2017 warrant an exception being made.
With Trent Alexander-Arnold prone to be part of Actual Madrid, that’d unlock £180,000 from the membership’s weekly wage invoice (Capology), which’d little question assist to fund the elevated wage for our quantity 11 and make sure that he wouldn’t reluctantly stroll out the door this summer season.
That Salah can at his age justify the membership’s house owners breaking with conference and growing his pay packet when he was already the highest-earning participant at Anfield attests to only how particular a footballer he’s been, continues to be and can probably be over the following couple of seasons.
