There aren't any guarantees that Liverpool and Mohamed Salah will reach an agreement over a new contract, according to The Athletic's James Pearce.
Salah has been with the club since 2017, and has gone on to score 125 goals in 203 appearances for the Reds, scarcely believable numbers in a hugely impressive spell to date with the Premier League side.
The 29-year-old is contracted with Liverpool until the summer of 2023, although it remains to be seen as to whether he'll commit his future to the club anytime soon.
Pearce reports that agreeing a new contract with Salah remains Liverpool's biggest priority out of their current front-three options, but it is not set in stone.
Liverpool are set to get their 2021/22 league campaign underway on Saturday 14th August, when they take on newly-promoted Norwich City at Carrow Road.
Many Liverpool fans took to social media to voice their frustrations after this update on Salah's future at Anfield heading towards the 2021/22 campaign.

"We're going to lose everyone."
