It seems that there is a great interest on the part of the Barcelona club’s management in contracting the Egyptian international Mohamed Salah, the player of the Liverpool team, in order to strengthen the team’s ranks in the coming period.
Mohamed Salah is linked to a contract with Liverpool that ends in the summer of 2023, and the English club may be forced to sell it if an agreement is not reached with him to extend it next summer, hoping to benefit financially from the sale of Mohamed Salah next summer instead of his free departure in June of next year.
Mohamed Salah joined Liverpool in 2018, coming from the Italian Roma, and Mo succeeded in attracting the attention of the giants of European clubs because of the wonderful levels provided by the company of his English team.
In this context, the Spanish newspaper “El Nacional” revealed that Barcelona puts Mohamed Salah among its summer goals, especially if the deal to contract with Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland fails.
And the newspaper pointed out that Joan Laporta, president of Barcelona, is looking at Mohamed Salah as a very suitable alternative to Argentine Lionel Messi, who moved to Paris Saint-Germain last summer.
The newspaper pointed out that Mohamed Salah is the current player who is similar to Messi, and has been shining with Liverpool since his move to Anfield Castle in the summer of 2018.
The newspaper claimed that Mohamed Salah is very disappointed with the Liverpool administration because of the inappropriate renewal offer, as the Egyptian player requests a weekly salary of 400,000 pounds, which the English club rejects.
And the newspaper concluded its report, that Barcelona is monitoring the situation to try to pounce on the player who will be a great addition to the coach’s battalion, Xavi Hernandez, and leads the Blaugrana to the right track.
This comes at a time when Liverpool is close to announcing the contract with Luis Diaz, worth 55 million euros, and it may be the closest alternative if he leaves, Mohamed Salah, as he is good at playing in the left and right wing position, a player from Porto and the Colombia national team.
