Ammon News - With Mohamed Salah on the verge of signing a fresh contract with Liverpool, the Egyptian’s new record salary has been revealed.

Months of speculation surrounding the future of the Reds’ talisman appear close to ending, as it has been widely reported that the 32-year-old is nearing agreement on a new deal with the six-time European champions.

Salah’s future at Anfield has been a topic of discussion since the start of the season, after the prolific winger publicly expressed frustration over the lack of negotiations.

However, it now seems that a breakthrough has been made in recent weeks, and the English giants are set to tie down one of their greatest-ever players to new terms.

When Liverpool last extended his contract in 2022, they made Salah the highest-paid player in the club’s history by offering him £350 000 (R8.7 million) per week. Now, according to The Sun, the Premier League champions-elect will increase that by £50 000 (R1.2 million), with Salah poised to earn £400 000 (R10 million) per week on a brand-new two-year extension.

Should he sign, and remain at the club for the duration of the mooted deal, his time at Liverpool will stretch to a decade, having joined from AS Roma in 2017. Since arriving on Merseyside, Salah has consistently performed at a world-class level, scoring 243 goals and providing 111 assists in 394 appearances. He will undoubtedly add to his legend before he departs. Soccer Laduma
