Former Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp has said he hopes Mohamed Salah stays at the club, labelling him the best striker they have had in modern times.

Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp says he hopes Mohamed Salah will extend his contract with the club. The Egyptian winger is out of contract in the summer but there is hope on Merseyside that he will agree to extend his stay at Anfield.

Mohamed Salah today became the first Liverpool player to reach 50 goals in European competition. Liverpool won against Lille at home in a new Champions League format that makes the victory entirely about the club’s financial benefit over placement in subsequent stages given the side’s previous dominance.
