Egyptian star Mohamed Salah has been told he could be putting Liverpool in “an impossible situation” over his new contract demands, by Alan Shearer.
Salah has 15 goals in all competitions this season and is looking like the man most likely to win that Premier League golden boot, which has been picke dup by Erling Haaland in recent seasons.
But there is still alot of speculation regarding the future of the attacker as clubs will be able to agree terms with the Egyptian for an end-of-season move in January, something that LIVERPOOL fans do not want to see happen.
Shearer says the contract impasse is not as simple as it might appear from the outside, believing any increase on the Liverpool star’s bottom line may lead to further issues down the line at Anfield.
“When I hear people say just give him what he wants, in terms of the Salah situation, you can’t just give a player what he wants,” Shearer told BBC Radio 5Live.
“One, you don’t know what he’s asking for, because he might put the club in an impossible situation if you give him what he wants, then someone else wants to know what he’s being paid.
“Then the next big hitter that comes in will want and demand what he’s being paid. There has to be a balance to something.
“We don’t know what goal bonus Salah is on, so it’s a very complicated situation when you’re talking about contracts for players who are in their 30s, but have been a huge part of the football club.”

This is so strange to see that Salah does not yet have the contract that he desires, the man is one of the best in the world. Nobody can predict how this will all play out, but at the end of the day, he would be a player that LIVERPOOL would miss.
