Former player Jamie Redknapp has raised concerns about the future of Mohamed Salah with Liverpool FC. After a challenging start to the 2025-26 season, Redknapp stated there is “no way” Salah will remain at the club if he is not receiving consistent starts.
Salah, who signed a new contract in the summer, has been struggling to find his form, managing only four goals thus far this season. His recent performances have seen him sidelined for the last two games, leading to visible frustration when he came off the bench during the match against Sunderland at Anfield on Wednesday. Following the game, Redknapp expressed doubt about the forward’s long-term commitment to the club, suggesting that an exit could be on the horizon.
Concerns Over Team Dynamics and Performance
“As good as Salah has been, everything comes to an end,” Redknapp remarked. He emphasized the need for players like Salah, who thrive on confidence and support from management, to feel valued. “There is no way that Mo Salah is going to be content to be a bit-part player,” he added, indicating that the situation could lead to a departure either in January or during the summer transfer window.
This season has been turbulent for the Premier League champions as they currently sit eighth in the league table following their draw with Sunderland. Fellow former player and Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher echoed Redknapp’s concerns, describing the team’s recent performances as “really, really worrying.” Carragher noted a lack of urgency, stating, “They didn’t look like scoring. They were lacking zip, energy, pace and power. It’s really worrying.”
Liverpool’s struggles this season have raised questions about their title defense and overall team cohesion. With Salah’s future uncertain and the club’s current form under scrutiny, fans and analysts alike will be watching closely as the season progresses.
