Mohamed Salah is a player who commands attention both on and off the pitch. His social media presence is as captivating as his performances for Liverpool.
Currently, he's arguably in the best form of his career at Anfield, having become the club's fourth highest scorer with 232 goals in 376 appearances and clinched every major trophy during his tenure. The Egyptian forward, who tops the Premier League's 2024-25 scoring and assists charts with 18 and 13 respectively, has truly come into his own at 32.
This explains why Liverpool fans are eager for him to extend his stay. Salah's contract expires at the end of this season and unless renewed, he could leave on a free transfer.
He has expressed his wish to continue playing for Liverpool, but his social media posts have often sparked speculation among fans. Notably, his post following Sunday's 2-2 draw with Manchester United, where he scored from the penalty spot, and his response to Jamie Carragher.
Salah's latest social media update might be without words, but it reveals quite a bit. The post captures the Egyptian ace heading to London with Kostas Tsimikas and Ibrahima Konate for Liverpool's Carabao Cup showdown against Spurs tonight.
Even though there was speculation that Konate would be rested after returning from a nearly seven-week absence in the match against Manchester United, it seems he could still make an appearance or at least warm the bench this evening.
Arne Slot hinted at this possibility, remarking: "If you've been out for such a long time, it is difficult to immediately play two games a week. So it will not come as a surprise if he does not play on Wednesday."
"He played today for 90 minutes and I think he showed in that 90 minutes he was ready to play."
With Joe Gomez out of contention, Slot's options in defense are thinning down to just three, tightening the case for Konate's presence at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Meanwhile, there's also some ambiguity surrounding Dominik Szoboszlai's chance to play, having missed the Man United clash.
On Szoboszlai’s situation, Slot mentioned: "Yesterday he wasn't in yet but if he is in today, I would doubt he is available to start the game. But hopefully he is in today, but yesterday he wasn't."
