Arsene Wenger suggested Liverpool should be inclined to hand Mo Salah a bumper contract.
The former Arsenal boss was full of praise for the Egyptian international who has lit up the domestic and European stage once more with his world-class performances.
There’s a balancing act at play on the Reds’ end, of course, with the club wary of setting a potentially damaging precedent by breaking their wage structure for the 29-year-old.
It’s a gamble on the side’s part, though with the risk of losing out on the globe’s top talent and the remaining top years of his playing career.

Arsène Wenger is in no doubt what he would do with Mo Salah's contract if he was at Liverpool.

Why would we listen to Arse Wenger – he of the World Cup every 2 years is greedy now but as a manager of AFC was never a UCL winner and was tight – fisted as I recall. While it is your opinion, if we wanted it I would have flushed the loo!
