As the winter mercato draws nearer, rumors are starting to circulate, the most juicy of which concerns Mohamed Salah, who is having doubts about his future at Liverpool. Le Parisien takes stock of the situation, alongside the Parisian project, in which the Egyptian seems to be no closer to joining.
“Confirmation: Salah’s entourage have carried out a manoeuvre to force Liverpool to obtain a lease renewal or a pay rise!
PSG deny having taken any action on this dossier
PSG doubt he really wants to leave Liverpool
Le Parisien.”

“Reds right winger raises Parisian hopes for a long time”
“And where does Luis Enrique fit into this story? As we say on the Poissy Campus, “Who doesn’t love Mohamed Salah?
“He wouldn’t fit in with Luis Enrique’s new sporting model”.
He wouldn’t fit in with Luis Enrique’s new sporting model, which focuses on high-potential youngsters surrounded by key players such as Marquinhos, Achraf Hakimi and Ousmane Dembélé.
While he now represents the bridgehead of the Parisian project, he would first have to be convinced of the merits of the arrival of Mohamed Salah if PSG were to decide to take action in the near future, something he denies at the moment.
There’s no need to ask too many questions: not being interested in Mo Salah would be heresy, given the Egyptian’s proven track record as a world-class player. Regular as few players are, he has magic in his feet. The kind of magic that Luis Enrique’s squad lacks at the moment. Salah can score, he can play, he has all the talents, his only problem is his age. He’s more at the end of his career than at the beginning, and you have to wonder.
In any case, Luis Enrique has to validate, but if he doesn’t, he’ll confirm the problems. Recruiting youngsters is all very well, but experience is an invaluable asset in soccer, and Salah also has the ability to make fans dream.
We’ll be keeping an eye on the situation, but we must remember that Luis Enrique must also question himself when necessary. Saying no to Mo Salah, if the rumour is true, would be a big problem.
