Liverpool manager Arne Slot has once again refrained from discussing the contract situation of star forward Mo Salah. In a recent statement, Slot emphasised that he does not engage in conversations about player contracts. However, he did note that Salah frequently features in his team selections, indicating the player’s importance to the squad. Slot assured that there is no distraction regarding Salah’s future for himself or the team.
Slot’s Consistent Stance on Contracts
Slot has maintained a consistent approach when it comes to discussing player contracts, as evidenced by his previous comments. Earlier this month, he remained tight-lipped about such matters, reinforcing his policy of not commenting on contractual issues.
Mo Salah’s Role in the Team
Despite the ongoing speculation about his future, Salah continues to be a key player for Liverpool. Slot’s remarks suggest that Salah’s presence in the starting line-up is a regular occurrence, underscoring his value to the team. The manager’s comments also imply that the contract situation is not affecting Salah’s performance or focus.
Recent Praise for Salah
Slot has previously praised Salah’s performances, comparing his longevity to that of football legends Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. This highlights the high regard in which Salah is held by his manager and the club.
