Mohamed Salah, a notable player for Liverpool, recently went public with his disappointment at the team's failure to offer him a new contract. This has resulted in criticism from Jamie Carragher, a former Liverpool defender, who labels Salah as 'selfish.'

Salah's current contract expires at the end of the season. Following Sunday's win against Southampton, Salah commented to reporters that he was 'probably more out than in' and has thus far received no new offer.

Carragher expressed his disappointment at Salah's public statements, especially ahead of Liverpool's matches against Real Madrid and Man City. He argued that Salah's comments and his agent's cryptic messages were selfish and showed an individual focus rather than a team one.

Liverpool has yet to issue a public comment regarding Salah's statements. However, a club source has stated that there is ongoing and positive contact with Salah's agent, Ramy Abbas Issa.

Other football experts, including former Blackburn and Chelsea striker Chris Sutton and The Athletic's Rory Smith, believe that Salah's decision to speak to reporters shows he wants to stay with Liverpool. They suggest that Liverpool's hesitation to renew his contract may be due to Salah's age and concerns about his performance level in the coming years.

Carragher emphasizes that the most crucial aspect for Liverpool this season is the game itself and not the contract status of its players, pointing to past experiences where the club has continued to thrive even when key players like Steven Gerrard and Graeme Souness left.
