Mohamed Salah pictured for the primary time since dropping Liverpool contract bombshell
Mohamed Salah has been snapped for the first time since revealing some massive news about his Liverpool future.
The Egyptian’s contract is set to expire at the end of this season and he claimed that there are no new offers to stay on the table from Anfield chiefs.
The forward, 32, conducted a rare interview with Mail Sport and a small group of other reporters after scoring twice in the 3-2 victory at Southampton, where he said he was ‘more out than in’ and criticised the club.
Addressing his contract stand-off on Sunday, Salah said: ‘We are almost in December and I haven’t received any offers yet to stay in the club.’
Now the Anfield icon has been pictured for the first time since dropping the bombshell and the star looks in relaxed spirits.
Salah can be seen beaming in a white thermal top while leaning on a bar with an espresso.

In the surprise interview over the weekend, the winger added: ‘I’m probably more out than in. You know I have been in the club for many years.
‘There is no club like this. But in the end it is not in my hands. As I said, it is December and I haven’t received anything yet about my future.
‘I love the fans. The fans love me. In the end it is not in my hands or the fans’ hands.’
Fuming Liverpool supporters labelled the club’s owners as ’embarrassing’ and ‘unforgivable’ in the wake of Salah’s revelation.
Salah has started this season on fire under new manager Arne Slot, scoring 12 goals in 18 appearances across all competitions, but has thrown his future on Merseyside up into the air.
Liverpool came from behind to claim a 3-2 victory over Southampton on Sunday and extend their lead at the top of the table to eight points with Salah the hero on the south coast.
The Egyptian turned in yet another performance for the ages to haul the Reds back from a 2-1 deficit with a penalty and a cute finish from an Alex McCarthy blunder.
