Salah's form could push up his price, says Slot

Arne Slot has joked that Mohamed Salah's phenomenal form is perfect for everyone at Liverpool apart from the paymasters who must negotiate his next Anfield contract.

Salah helped to strengthen Liverpool's grip on the Premier League title with a goal and an assist in their win at Manchester City on Sunday. The 32-year-old forward has 30 goals and 21 assists from 38 appearances this season - 25 goals and 16 assists in the Premier League - and has scored in his past eight outings. Salah requires one more goal to overtake Gordon Hodgson as the third-highest goalscorer in Liverpool's history.

The Egypt international has just over four months remaining on his contract and, despite stating several times that he wishes to extend, has yet to reach agreement on a new deal. Slot believes the striker's contribution to Liverpool's title challenge has reinforced his value to the club.
