Souness Urges Liverpool to Move On From Salah After Steep Decline

In a Daily Mail interview, the ex-captain described a cliff‑edge decline in Salah’s form, citing a sharp statistical drop, urging a summer sale despite a 2027 contract.

Overview

  • Souness said Salah is the “single biggest reason” for Liverpool’s indifferent season and replied “yes” when asked if he should leave this summer.
  • Salah has 10 goals and nine assists in all competitions so far, compared with 44 goal contributions at this stage last season and 34 the year before, with only five in the league this term.
  • The forward remains tied to Liverpool until 2027, meaning any departure would require the club to sanction a transfer.
  • Coverage notes a summer exit is possible with Saudi Pro League interest floated by reports, though no formal bids have been confirmed.
  • Liverpool have slipped to fifth under Arne Slot despite reaching the Champions League and FA Cup quarter-finals, as some analysis highlights wider midfield and defensive issues beyond Salah’s form.
