<p>Salah's future remains the subject of speculation as the Egyptian star heads towards the end of his current deal that expires in the summer of 2025. The 32-year-old is willing to listen to offers and may receive one from Barcelona, according to <a href="https://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/salah-extremo-mesa-barca-111391501" target="_blank"><em>Diario Sport</em></a>. The Catalans spoke to Salah in 2021, before he renewed with Liverpool, but could not progress negotiations due to the Reds' high asking price and Salah's wage demands. Yet the situation may be different next summer, particularly as Salah will be available on a free transfer if he does not sign a new contract at Anfield.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Salah has yet to reveal his plans for the future but offered a cryptic update after <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/liverpool-player-ratings-vs-brighton-mohamed-salah-unspeakably-good/bltd042a83c2d46b589" target="_blank">scoring against Brighton last time out</a>. The forward wrote on social media that he will never forget what it feels like to score at Anfield <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/mohamed-salah-huge-hint-liverpool-future-social-media-tease-scoring-brighton-win/bltba20023a52366eb0#csb97a6f862152cdc9" target="_blank">"no matter what happens."</a> Salah would surely not lack for offers if he does decide on a new challenge after playing a starring role for Liverpool since joining the club from Roma in 2017. He has also shown few signs of slowing down, despite his advancing years, and has been in fine form once again in the current campaign with nine goals already for the Reds in all competitions.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Barcelona certainly aren't lacking for goals this season. Hansi Flick's side have scored 40 goals in La Liga in 2024-25, the second-highest scoring record after their first 12 games of the season in their entire history.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Liverpool fans face a nervous wait to see whether Salah opts to continue his career at Anfield past the end of the season. Barcelona may be one of a host of clubs keeping tabs on the Egyptian's situation but are also thought to be willing to reignite their interest in <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/barcelona-nico-williams-could-snub-offer-reunite-with-lamine-yamal-athletic-club-prepare-contract-extension-spain-hero/blt47023b7c41018e05#csf3ff7926f43e3da0" target="_blank">Spain star Nico Williams next summer</a>.</p>
