PSG Denies Salah Transfer Rumors: Liverpool Star’s Future Remains Uncertain
Is Mohamed Salah heading to Paris? Not so fast, says PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi. Recent speculation linking the Liverpool forward with a move to the French giants has been swiftly dismissed as mere rumor.
In an interview with Sky Sports Germany, Al-Khelaifi put the brakes on the transfer talk, stating unequivocally that PSG has no interest in acquiring Salah. “He’s a fantastic player,” Al-Khelaifi conceded, “but we have never considered signing him.” He further emphasized that while many clubs are undoubtedly keen on the Egyptian star, any suggestion of PSG’s pursuit is simply untrue.
This public denial comes amidst growing uncertainty surrounding Salah’s future at Anfield. The 32-year-old’s contract is set to expire at the end of the current season, and his recent comments have fueled speculation about a potential departure. Following Liverpool’s 3-2 victory over Southampton earlier this month, a visibly frustrated Salah expressed his disappointment at the lack of contract negotiations. “I’m very frustrated,” he admitted. “It’s almost December, and no one from Liverpool has offered me a new contract. I want to stay, but it’s not in my hands, or the fans’ hands. This season might be my last.”
Salah’s contributions to Liverpool have been nothing short of phenomenal since his arrival in 2017. He has consistently ranked among the Premier League’s top scorers, helping the club secure both the Champions League and Premier League titles. His departure would undoubtedly be a significant blow to the Reds, leaving a void difficult to fill.

While PSG has distanced itself from the Salah sweepstakes, other European giants are likely monitoring the situation closely. [Mention potential suitors based on current football news/transfer rumors – e.g., Real Madrid, Barcelona, etc. Link to a reputable source if possible]. The allure of playing alongside superstars like Kylian Mbappé and Neymar at PSG might have been tempting, but Al-Khelaifi’s statement effectively closes that door.
The ball is now firmly in Liverpool’s court. Will they offer Salah a contract extension that reflects his value and keeps him at Anfield? Or will they risk losing one of the world’s best players on a free transfer? The coming months will be crucial in determining the next chapter of Mohamed Salah’s illustrious career. The football world waits with bated breath.
