In a stunning transfer development, Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah has reportedly offered himself to Barcelona as contract negotiations with the Premier League club reach an impasse. The Egyptian forward, who has been in sensational form this season with 32 goals and 22 assists in just 42 games, could be on the move in the summer—if he is willing to take a pay cut.

According to SPORT, Salah is open to the idea of joining Barcelona, but financial constraints could complicate the deal. The 32-year-old currently earns around €18 million per season, making him one of the highest-paid players in the Premier League. However, due to Barça’s delicate financial situation and the uncertainty surrounding La Liga’s 1:1 rule, the Catalan giants would only be able to sign Salah if he agrees to a reduced salary.

A Shift in Barcelona’s Transfer Focus?

Initially, Barcelona’s sporting director Deco had reportedly been focused on signing Salah’s Liverpool teammate Luis Díaz, viewing the Colombian as the ideal left-sided attacker for Hansi Flick’s squad next season. However, Salah’s willingness to make the move to Camp Nou has now emerged as a more realistic opportunity.

Salah’s Hint at a Liverpool Exit

The Egyptian forward’s recent comments in an interview with Steve McManaman hinted that his time at Anfield may be coming to an end.

“I want fans to remember that I gave it all to them. I gave it all to the city. I wasn’t lazy, I just enjoyed my football and gave it all. I think that’s what the city is about—they give you love, and you have a connection with them because you give your all. I just want them to remember that I was here for eight years and I gave it all.”

These words suggest that Salah could be preparing for his next challenge, and Barcelona could be the perfect destination for the experienced winger, who still possesses world-class goal-scoring ability and playmaking skills.

Will Barcelona Make the Move?

A transfer for Salah would bring undeniable quality to Barcelona’s attack. If Salah is willing to adjust his salary demands, a move to Barça could become a reality, giving the club a proven goal-scorer who could elevate their attack next season.

With Barcelona looking to compete at the highest level in La Liga and the Champions League, signing a player of Salah’s pedigree could be a game-changer. However, the financial aspect remains a major hurdle. Will the Egyptian star be willing to sacrifice part of his salary to fulfill a dream move to Spain? Barcelona fans will be eagerly waiting to see how this potential transfer unfolds.
