Former English footballer Peter Crouch, in a conversation with talkSPORT, suggested that Liverpool should meet Mohamed Salah’s demands to ensure he stays at Anfield for a few more years.
“Yeah, he’s just been probably the best player in the Premier League for a number of years now,”Crouch told talkSPORT.
“You’re not going to be able to replace his goals without spending hundreds of millions. I think you’ve got to probably give him what he wants. I think if it’s two or three years, I don’t see any sign of him slowing down. I think he’s going to guarantee you 20 to 30 goals a season in those three years.”
