About Mo Salah’s future at Liverpool, David Ornstein discusses what he has been hearing thus far.

At this point, Mohamed Salah might be considering staying at Liverpool past the end of the current campaign.
Al Ittihad of Saudi Arabia showed a lot of interest in Salah throughout the summer, and Liverpool turned down a huge offer for their number eleven.
Since then, it’s been widely believed that the Saudis will make Mo a second offer in January or early next year. Many Reds supporters may have already come to terms with the possibility that this is Salah’s final season at Anfield.
However, journalist David Ornstein now suggests that could not be the case after all. In a Q&A session with The Athletic, Ornstein was questioned whether the future of the Egyptian superstar had received “any noise.” Liverpool supporters will find encouragement in his response.
The journalist answered, “No, other than I don’t think it’s set in stone he goes.”
“I’ve even heard some comments that he would want to stay and carry on competing in Europe at the top level. Of course, it’s a big decision for the player and the team.
Liverpool gave Salah motivation.
The Saudi interest that surfaced during the summer, which was naturally turned down, was in some respects a good thing.
It helped Liverpool fans prepare for the possibility that, in a year, their Egyptian King may actually leave the team. That has been the general sentiment among supporters.
However, given that the Saudis frequently perform for audiences of fewer than 1,000, maybe the situation has changed.
Nobody knew for sure how the Pro League initiative would turn out back in the summer. Many well-known players were moving to the Middle East, raising hopes that the league would soon be on par with its European rivals.
That may still be the case in the future, but it hasn’t materialised as of yet. It appears more and more like it will follow in the unfortunate footsteps of the Chinese Super League with each passing week. Is anyone really bothered outside of the transfer window?
You can see why Mo might have been tempted by an offer a year ago. Now, though, there ought to be a legitimate doubt. It will appear as though he is conceding that his career is failing by moving from the Premier League to the Pro League.
Salah might still be content to take that step, but we believe his fierce competitiveness might be about to turn the tide. He is thirty-one years old.
Hopefully, Liverpool’s return to form and a few trophies this season will satiate his desire and convince him to stay. It seems as though things are about to change. Mo may finally have his “Wolf of Wall Street” moment.

Caoimhin Kelleher expressed his happiness following Jurgen Klopp’s decision.
Caoimhin Kelleher is thrilled that Jurgen Klopp made a choice for Liverpool this season. At Anfield, the goalie is still regarded as backup.
In 2022, Caoimhin Kelleher truly became well-known. He appeared like he would continue to improve after shining in the Carabao Cup final as Liverpool won the cup.
This followed multiple Premier League and Champions League first-team outings. Up until the previous season, everything appeared fine.
Kelleher made just three appearances during the 2022–2023 season. That was it—one in the Premier League and two in the Carabao Cup. 301 football minutes.
For the Irishman, that may be considered something of a disaster. Although he will turn 25 later this month, he is no longer a particularly young athlete, and the lack of football has caused his stock to fall.
Kelleher has benefited greatly by Liverpool’s increased usage of him this season; in fact, he is probably the key reason for their participation in the Europa League. The goalie has actually played in and appeared in more games already this season than he did the entire previous one.
It should come as no surprise that Kelleher is overjoyed that Jurgen Klopp has started him in games this year. That’s exactly what the player discussed in an interview with Liverpoolfc.com.
“I’m obviously very happy that the manager has trusted me to start the games in this competition and also getting the League Cup games so far as well,” he stated. It has benefited me and has provided me a significant amount of playing time.
Thus, Kelleher is gradually attempting to restore that reputation, and this season, she will have the opportunity to do so. It’s unknown exactly what his long-term plans are; he might like to move on the next year.
For the time being, though, he is Liverpool’s competent Europa League custodian and should be able to help the team win further cups
