  • Spanish giants Real Madrid are the only side reported to be interested in the signing of Mohamed Salah

Mohamed Salah has reportedly told Liverpool chiefs that he wants 28 million euros a year which is around N13.6 billion for him to extend his contract at the Premier League giants.

For now, the Egypt international is having two years remaining on his current contract at Anfield and the club's eggheads have been asking him to sign a new deal.

The former Chelsea and Roma star is currently on 11 million euros a year at Liverpool, but Mohamed Salah wants more than double of his current wages for him to stay.

According to the report on Marca and Eurosport, only Virgil Van Dijk is collecting more money than Mohammed Salah at the Premier League club.

Since joining Liverpool from Roma, Mohammed Salah has helped the Anfield landlords to win the Premier League title and also the Champions League.

What next?

Liverpool will now have to make a decision on whether to meet Mohamed Salah's demand or to allow him to join another big club in Europe.

Real Madrid are said to be interested in Mohamed Salah and the Spanish side could make a move for the Egyptian footballer next summer.

Meanwhile, Liverpool are currently occupying fifth position on the Premier League table with seven points after three games played so far.

Jordan Henderson gets new contract at Liverpool
