Enrique warns Salah against leaving Liverpool
Enrique warns Salah against leaving Liverpool
Former Liverpool defender Jose Enrique says Mohamed Salah would be making a 'massive mistake' if he leaves Anfield this summer.
The Egyptian's current deal expires in 2023, but the club and Salah are yet to reach an agreement over new terms.
Enrique says both Liverpool and Salah would 'lose' if they cannot match Salah's demands.
“I think it would be a big loss for him and for the club [if he left]," Enrique told SPORTbible, on behalf of Genting Casino.
"At the moment he is being completely respectful. I respect both sides, to be honest. Salah is seeing other world-class players who are playing in different positions but are earning a lot more than him.
"He could ask 'why am I not earning what they are earning? I am the best player this season in the Premier League, and in the world as well.
"What is the risk if Salah opts to leave the Reds? Where is he going to go? To Real Madrid, PSG… places like that.
"Yes, they will pay you more but are you going to be as happy as you are at Liverpool? You are a hero. You are a legend. If you stay at the club you can probably become the biggest player ever for the club, if he keeps doing these kinds of numbers.
