Liverpool managed a 2-2 draw against Manchester United, with Mohamed Salah once again on the scoresheet for the Reds.
The Egyptian international bagged his 21st goal in all competitions from the spot as Salah once again provided a magic moment to inspire Liverpool to a result, with the Reds likely happy with the point given how poorly they played.
With Pat Nevin noting that Salah looked like he was loving every second of Liverpool’s game against United, the winger’s body language seemed to suggest that the attacker could be ready to finally sign a new contract after weeks of speculation.
However, Liverpool fans are not happy with what they have seen from Salah after his latest post on social media.

As for Salah, the Liverpool winger’s agent was at Anfield this weekend with more transfer talks expected between the Egyptian and the Merseyside giants, and the 32-year-old’s post could only add more fuel to the fire heading into the coming weeks.
Liverpool must be reaching breaking point with Salah’s contract
To say Salah has been dropping hints about his future would be an understatement, with the winger’s latest moment on social media something that will catch the eye of the higher-ups at Liverpool.
