Mohamed Salah has posted to his social media ahead of the massive clash this weekend when Liverpool host Manchester City. The Egyptian has been in the headlines throughout the week after the comments regarding his future at Anfield.

The 32-year-old put supporters on alert when he expressed his disappointment at the Reds' failure to table a contract offer, admitting that he was 'more in than out'. The speculation didn't put him off on Wednesday as he featured in Liverpool's 2-0 win over Real Madrid in the Champions League, however despite winning a penalty for the Reds, he stepped up and fired wide of Thibaut Courtois' post.

Salah will be hoping to have a key role on Sunday when Pep Guardiola's team visit Anfield looking to deny Liverpool the chance to move 11 points clear. The Reds star was also a notable absentee from FIFA's TheBest nominees as the likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Solomon Rondon made the list of attacker nominees.

With the focus now turning to City, after Wednesday's impressive win over Real Madrid, Liverpool players posted to their social media. And as ever, Salah kept his words to a minimum posting a series of pictures arriving at the AXA Training Centre.

And the forward even colour co-ordinated his outfit to match the Liverpool badge outside the training ground. While it appears Salah is keen to stay at Anfield - and seemingly doing all he can to do so - his future will likely remain the subject of speculation until a new deal is officially signed.

But that won't stop the forward from showing his loyalty to the club in any way he can - be that on the pitch or otherwise. Following the recent contract claim from Salah, Arne Slot failed to be drawn on the speculation with the Egyptian's contract set to expire in the summer.

He said: "The only thing I can say is, when I look at my line-ups, Mo is more in than out. That quote I can give you. He is not distracted at all. I haven't seen it after the Man Utd game when he made comments. I didn't see anything today, he is fully focused on the game tomorrow (Wednesday).

"If you had been at the training ground today, no one spoke about it at least when I was there. Players are also focused on the short term. That is Real Madrid and City.

"I don't think there is any distraction for him, the players and definitely not for me."
