Arne Slot Gets the Backing of FSG, But What About Salah?

Things are tense at the Liverpool football club after a series of disheartening results, coupled with Mohamed Salah's fallout with Arne Slot, which has finally seen the light of day. Amidst all this, Liverpool backs Arne Slot, and they have made their intentions clear with this decision. The Dutch manager has failed to inspire his team and build on last season's superb performance, as the club now sits 9th in the league table, far away from a European spot.

Regardless, Arne Slot is reported to have the full support of the club, as they are committed to working towards a better future with this manager at the helm. But the club has made it clear that Slot's fate will only be decided based on results, rather than by other mitigating factors.

However, there has been no official statement from the club regarding Salah's comments. Mohamed Salah future at the club is up in the air ever since he aired his frustration in a bombshell of an interview. The Egyptian even went on to say that he could leave the club in January, as he has not been delivered on what he was promised when he signed a contract extension with the club in April, which is supposed to run till 2027.

What does the Future hold for Mohamed Salah now at Liverpool?

The Liverpool board believes that Arne Slot should be given the full freedom to choose his tactics and the players whom he wants to start with, which should be followed by every player of the club professionally. This has sent a clear message that Liverpool backs Arne Slot, but is still undecided on Mohamed Salah future at the club. Usually, clubs take action against players who speak badly about the club in public while being under contract.

It is still to be seen if Salah travels to Italy to face Inter or features against Brighton next in the Premier League. But it looks like the club will surely take some action for publicly belittling its manager and the club. The FSG, along with Richard Hughes & Michael Edwards are in talks, and an official statement is expected soon.
