Arne Slot's decision to include Mohamed Salah in the Liverpool squad last weekend against Brighton was a step in the right direction for the club, who have been in turmoil this season.
The two-time Premier League title winner, who only signed a two-year contract extension in April is tipped to leave the side in January after the recent drama in which the Egyptian said the club threw him “under the bus”.
Speaking on the Stick to Football podcast, Carragher has weighed in on the situation as he reveals that he believes that the winger will depart as the Reds cannot stand the heat.
“I think if Liverpool get the money that they want, they will probably will. I think they'll think they don't want the hassle.
“I'd love him to stay and I think he can have a better send-off and have an impact between now and the end of the season.”
As transfer rumours continue to grow, Salah will represent Egypt at the African Cup of Nations and will miss Liverpool’s next three Premier League fixtures.
The Egyptian king will have to think long and hard about his future over the next month as Saudi Pro League sides circle him. Selling Salah in January would deny him the chance of having a deserved Anfield farewell but Carragher may be right that the club do not want more drama.
