Liverpool’s hopes for clinching the Premier League title suffered a significant blow at Goodison Park, where they endured a 2-0 defeat against their local rivals. Jarrad Branthwaite and Dominic Calvert-Lewin secured the win for Sean Dyche’s side, marking Liverpool’s first loss at Goodison since 2010. This defeat leaves them trailing three points behind league leaders Arsenal, with Manchester City closely following, holding two games in hand.
Once again, Salah failed to make a mark in the attack, prompting Carragher to call for a reassessment of the Egyptian’s future at Anfield, particularly as he has only one year left on his contract. The club legend emphasized that Salah has appeared “a shadow of himself” since returning from injury after the AFCON in February, having only scored three times in his last eight league appearances.
In an interview with Sky Sports, Carragher remarked, “Mo Salah is Liverpool’s top scorer, and his recent form has raised concerns. This prompts serious discussion for the new manager regarding Salah’s future, a question that has not been raised before. With just a year remaining on his contract, Salah’s recent performances have been below par.”
Before the AFCON tournament, Salah boasted an impressive shot conversion rate of 21.54%, scoring 14 goals from 65 attempts in the Premier League. However, since his return, his conversion rate has plummeted to a mere 8.57% from 35 attempts, indicating a notable decline in his scoring efficiency.
Salah had previously been linked to a potential move to Saudi Arabia before the previous summer transfer window. However, with only one year left on his contract, Liverpool faces a crucial decision regarding his future at the club. They may contemplate the option of selling the prolific striker amidst growing uncertainty over his form and prospects. Salah will have the opportunity to improve his current form when Liverpool face West Ham on Saturday afternoon.
