While Mohamed Salah's future at Liverpool remains uncertain and is at the center of attention in England, Jürgen Klopp has expressed his desire for the Egyptian to extend his contract with the Reds.

"Is this really my last season here? So far, yes. These are my last six months. There has been no progress. We'll wait and see," said Klopp. A year after the end of his era at Liverpool, will Salah's time at the club also come to an end? In an interview with Sky Sports nearly two weeks ago, the Egyptian international hinted that he could leave Liverpool once his contract expires on June 30, 2025. This strong and unexpected statement caused a stir in Liverpool and quickly spread throughout the United Kingdom.

The news sparked many reactions, and the most recent one comes from Jürgen Klopp himself, who left his mark on Liverpool as manager for nine seasons before stepping down last summer, worn out by pressure and years. When asked about the future of Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Mohamed Salah, whose contracts expire in June, Klopp shared his thoughts in an interview also given to Sky Sports.

Klopp, always close to Liverpool, was clear in his response. "I'm so happy I'm not in charge of the team right now to answer these questions. From my point of view, I hope the three of them stay, but they haven’t told me," he stated. Then, he specifically addressed Mohamed Salah: "I hope he stays. He's the best forward Liverpool has ever had in its modern history, a fantastic player, a fantastic human being, the best that his country could have. I hope he stays at Liverpool," said Klopp, who wants his former player to stay and help the team maintain its excellent performance.

"I'm really happy they’re doing well. I'm in contact with Arne Slot, and some players send me texts. 0.1% of them think I should still be there because they're doing very well. I watch as many matches as I can because they're playing very good football, maybe the most balanced team in the world right now," added the former manager of Liverpool. Despite being away from the club, Klopp continues to closely follow Liverpool's results and news. Out of sight, but close to the heart.
