Liverpool

The saga over Mohamed Salah's new Liverpool contract appears to be nearing a conclusion with the Egyptian on the verge of signing a fresh deal to remain at ...

Mo is not a guy for that, not at all. We could have some players who don’t play often enough and aren’t in the squad enough and they could create a bad atmosphere. Salah has always maintained he enjoys his life at Liverpool but wanted the fact that he is now recognised as one of the world’s top players replicated with a salary to match.

The boy had travelled for two days to watch his first Liverpool match at Anfield but it was all too much for him once the players appeared.

That's a memory for the lad that he'll never forget." A memory and experience that will last a lifetime for Oscar." Fellow supporters and Twitter users reacted with happiness at seeing the special moment. Safe journey home to the little fella and he can dream of next time." Such is his delight at being in the stadium for first time, he appears unsure whether to film the experience or just witness it through his own eyes. Such moments are to be treasured and for one lucky boy at Anfield yesterday, the sheer emotion of the occasion was beautifully captured and shared on social media. The start of a love affair that will often last a lifetime.

Former Liverpool defender Markus Babbel isn't sure how Mohamed Salah would get on in La Liga if he was to make the move to Spain.

He’s been in Switzerland, Italy, England he may want to live a different lifestyle, culture and language — I could accept that, but not if just about the money.” “I hope he’s smart enough to see that the club is perfect for my style of football, the people here love me, the city loves me, the club loves me. “The club is perfectly placed for Mo and allows him to be the outstanding player he is.

MOHAMED SALAH is finally closing in on a new Liverpool contract after a breakthrough at Anfield.

According to reports, Liverpool's Egyptian superstar will sign a new four-year-contract that will make him the club's top earner.

Media Digest: Liverpool could be handed a huge Mohamed Salah contract boost, according to reports, while Jürgen Klopp is said to be keen on a £34m winger.

A Tuesday to Sunday turnaround ahead of the Premier League game should have got the worst effects of the Suárez antics out of Man City’s system, but playing the second leg away at Atlético on the Wednesday night ahead of a Saturday meeting in the FA Cup could be hugely testing. In a title race of such fine margins, perhaps the effects of the trip to Portugal will have a residual impact, but with more than four full days to recover it should not prove decisive. If all goes well, Liverpool may even be able to field a second string side in their own second leg, which will be played at Anfield: the difference is stark. Ninety minutes of handling Suárez, Simeone and all the other wily old foxes, even at the Etihad, is worth about six flights to Lisbon. It is still a colossal ask for Liverpool to come through this fortnight unscathed. Nonetheless, if the Uruguayan is locked into one of his goalscoring veins of form, it is very bad news for Manchester City. Now 35, he is also no longer a certainty to start, but he will relish any chance he gets to make a nuisance of himself. However, the striker will surely have been grateful for the run-out, a great confidence-booster ahead of his biggest game of the campaign. READ MORE: Mohamed Salah may finally have realised what Liverpool always knew as contract solution 'near' To make matters worse for Man City, their opponents are entering the tie in extremely good form, in stark contrast to Benfica. Unbeaten in eight and on a six-game winning streak, they warmed up for the Champions League tie with a 4-1 drubbing of Alavés. Suárez and João Félix both helped themselves to braces. Félix has not even been a guaranteed starter in the league this season, with Simeone typically preferring to save the talented youngster for the big Champions League nights. It was immediately clear that the Champions League draw had been kind to Liverpool. It would be dangerous to write off Benfica out of hand, but on paper they are the weakest side left in the competition. Sandwiched between that first game are the two legs of the Champions League quarter-final against Benfica. It doesn’t get much more high-stakes, but Jürgen Klopp could hold a critical four-game advantage — and Luis Suárez is partly to thank.

Thiago Alcantara has been a shining light for Liverpool this term and his Champions League situation looks very different 12 months on.

Liverpool have lost just once - and that was a 1-0 defeat at home to Inter Milan in the Champions League round of 16 second leg last month that made no difference to progress in the competition. And it's telling that of the eight Premier League games Liverpool have failed to win this season, the Spaniard was absent for six of them. And Thiago is clearly in the mood to help Liverpool this week edge nearer a potential reunion with his former colleagues. But as, 12 months on, Liverpool prepare once again for a last-eight tie in Europe's premier cup competition, it would be a major surprise if Thiago is not among the first names on Jurgen Klopp's teamsheet for Tuesday's first leg against Benfica in Portugal. Long banished have been any doubts over whether the former Barcelona graduate would be able to perform in a Klopp midfield, his performances in the closing weeks of last season ensuring Liverpool were able to return to the Champions League with an impressive third-placed Premier League finish. And, in Saturday's hard-earned victory over Watford, Thiago provided a latest showcase of why he is, when available, such an important cog of the engine room with the Reds continuing to chase down an unprecedented quadruple. A Champions League quarter-final first leg at Real Madrid should have been the ideal stage for the Spaniard to strut his stuff in his native country against familiar opposition.
