Liverpool star Gini Wijnaldum has provided Mo Salah with a plan.
Much has been said about the interview that the Spanish media AS managed to secure with Salah, in which he said that his future was in the hands of the club and mentioned his disappointment at not having been named captain against Midtjylland.
Liverpool are facing a small time bomb with the Egyptian superstar and need to make a decision very soon.
Mohamed Salah is 28 years old with just over two years left on his current contract, which makes things a bit awkward.
We’re seeing how awkward things can be for the team’s stars over 30 in the last six months of their contract, even if they are vital parts of the machine, which is where Gini Wijnaldum comes in.
It has been very important to coach Jurgen Klopp and he continues to excel. But, with a contract that runs out in the summer, it looks like he’s ready to go with a free transfer and allow for a slight midfield upgrade.
All Liverpool forwards are roughly the same age. Would Michael Edwards allow the club to pass big deals for an elite trio of strikers in the final years of his personal life?
Rather, I would expect the club to allow one or two to leave in the next two years as Jurgen Klopp rebuilds the front line, using massive transfer fees to attract players who can build and grow with this second generation of Liverpool players.
Salah could go the Wijnaldum route and play until his contract runs out as Klopp looks to make the most of him over the next two years.
Or, they might decide they don’t want to let this elite player chew on a lot of money as he moves into his final seasons and sells it for a large sum.
Either way, Wijnaldum’s experiences as a key player that Klopp has allowed to leave to regenerate the side will inform this decision making.
