Liverpool fans were left surprised after Mohamed Salah’s recent comments about his uncertain future at Anfield.

The 32-year-old forward, whose contract runs until 2025, has hinted that he might not extend his stay with the club.

Following Liverpool’s thrilling 3-2 win over Southampton, Salah revealed that his future is “more out than in,” adding that the situation is “out of his hands.”

These remarks have sparked intense discussions among fans and pundits, with Jamie Carragher leading the criticism.

The Liverpool legend expressed his disappointment with Salah’s timing, as the club gears up for crucial games against Real Madrid and Manchester City.

Carragher calls out Salah

Carragher voiced his frustrations on Sky Sports, saying, “I am very disappointed with Mo Salah. Liverpool’s focus should be on the upcoming games, not his contract situation.”

He accused Salah of creating unnecessary distractions and putting his interests above the team’s priorities.

He added: “Liverpool has thrived before without big names. The club’s success doesn’t hinge on one player.

“Salah is vital, but the team will move on, just as it did after Steven Gerrard and Graeme Souness left.”
