# Liverpool: Fans love James Pearce’s update on Mohamed Salah

**Some Liverpool supporters have been reacting joyously to James Pearce’s claim that the Reds are working on tying Mohamed Salah down to a new deal.**

Salah has been an incredible signing for Liverpool, arriving from Roma and never looking back from the moment he scored on his debut at Watford.

The 29-year-old has bagged a remarkable [126 goals in 204 appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/mohamed-salah/alletore/spieler/148455) for the Reds, proving to be their attacking talisman time and time again.

Salah was Liverpool’s best player last season and he has started in similar vein this time around, producing a superb performance away to Norwich City last weekend.

The Egyptian’s current Reds deal [expires](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/mohamed-salah/profil/spieler/148455) in the summer of 2023, but the hope is that he signs a new contract to take him well beyond that date.

According to [*The Athletic*](https://theathletic.com/2771088/2021/08/19/mo-salah-liverpool-contract-negotiations/)‘s Pearce \[via [*Anfield Edition*](https://twitter.com/AnfieldEdition/status/1428260380854394886?s=20) on Twitter\], Liverpool are in talks with Salah over an extended deal – one which would make him the highest-paid player in the club’s history.
