Mohamed Salah is reportedly in secret negotiations for a potential transfer to Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), with discussions already underway about his departure from Liverpool. This news comes amidst growing concerns over his future, as Salah, along with teammates Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk, is about to enter the final year of his contract this summer.

The Egyptian forward, a key figure in Liverpool's lineup, has recently been criticized by club legend Jamie Carragher, who called his public comments about his contract "selfish" after Salah expressed uncertainty over renewing, stating last November that he was "more in than out." Carragher’s disapproval is likely to intensify upon learning that Salah has been in talks with PSG behind the club's back.

Reports from Spain suggest that PSG has reignited their long-standing interest in Salah, who is said to have no intention of renewing his contract with the Reds. The French club is reportedly keen on bringing Salah to Paris to spearhead their attack following the departures of star players like Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Kylian Mbappé.

Salah Seeks New Challenges

Despite Liverpool’s strong performance this season under manager Arne Slot, with Salah continuing to be a key player, the forward believes he has reached his peak at Anfield and is eager to take on a new challenge in a different league. At 32 years old, Salah is looking to maximize his remaining years in top-flight football in a competitive environment.

The decision to not extend his contract is seen as part of Salah’s desire to take control of his career’s direction. His current deal runs until 2025, but a transfer next summer could be mutually beneficial. Salah would be able to explore new opportunities, while Liverpool would have the chance to earn a fee before he potentially leaves on a free transfer.

Possible Double Departure at Liverpool

In related news, Darwin Núñez could also be set to follow Salah out of Anfield. The Uruguayan striker has struggled since joining the club, scoring only 37 goals in 122 appearances, with just four goals this season under Slot. Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal is reportedly interested in Núñez as a potential replacement for the departing Neymar.
