Mohamed Salah is in the final year of his Liverpool contract and the Reds could be in a battle to keep him until the end of the season.
Salah has scored 217 goals in 358 appearances for Liverpool since joining from Roma in 2017. Only Ian Rush, Roger Hunt, Gordon Hodgson and Billy Liddell have scored more goals than him in the Merseyside club’s 132-year history.
If Salah does not sign a new contract at Anfield, he can leave on a free transfer next summer.
Salah has been linked with interest from teams in Saudi Arabia, but according to The sunhe is not yet interested in joining Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar and Co in the Arab state.
The sun also reports that Paris Saint-Germain is leading the race for Salah’s signature and that the French champions are ready to offer him a three-year contract.

If Salah were to play at PSG for three years from next summer, he would commit to staying in Paris until June 2028 – the same month as his 36th birthday.
PSG is a little short on star power since Lionel Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe all left the Parc des Princes in recent years.
Despite these high-profile exits, PSG sit at the top of the Ligue 1 table after taking 16 points from the opening six games of the season.
However, European success is PSG’s biggest goal.
They have never won Europe’s biggest prize, despite reaching three semi-finals and one final in the past five campaigns.
Salah won the Champions League with Liverpool in 2019 when he scored the opening goal in a 2-0 win over Tottenham in the final.
Salah spoke about his future after the 3-0 win over Manchester United in September, saying: ‘I came to the match and said ‘look, it could be the last time (at Old Trafford)’.
PSG would be willing to offer Salah a three-year contract, running from next summer until June 2028
‘No one from the club has spoken to me about contracts yet. It’s not up to me, it’s up to the club, but we’ll see.
‘As you know, this is my last year at the club. I just want to enjoy it. I don’t want to think about it (the contract). I feel like I’m free to play football and we’ll see what happens next year.”
