Liverpool hero Carragher again urges Salah to pen new deal

Liverpool hero Jamie Carragher has again urged Mohamed Salah to sign a new contract.

Salah's future is up in the air on Merseyside with just one year to run on his current contract despite having starred since his 2017 arrival, scoring 155 goals in 252 games and having just won the Football Writers' Player of the Year.

"They have got to focus on creating history in less than a couple of weeks," Carragher told Sky Sports following Liverpool's 2-1 win at Southampton, which Salah missed due to a slight knock, that kept alive their Premier League title hopes.

"I don't think it will be at the forefront of their mind. I think Mane will sign, Salah's future is up in the air and [Roberto] Firmino may see his contract out. He may go for free at the end of next season.

"I think Salah should sign. He [Klopp] has turned good players into great players and Salah is one of them. This suits him, Jurgen Klopp suits him, but I think he should remember about two or three players who left and thought the grass was greener and then look at what they are doing this season."
