Recent contract negotiations between Mohamed Salah and Liverpool have been the focus of a research for Harvard Business School, giving fans a rare inside look at the negotiations that go place behind the scenes.
As he enters the final two years of his current contract, Salah, 31, is still a subject of rumors after spending the summer months connected with a potential move to the Saudi Pro League.
The international player from Egypt signed this deal in July 2022, increasing his pay to £350,000 per week and making him the highest-paid player in club history.
Salah said at the time that “it takes a little bit of time, I think, to renew,” but that “now everything is done so we just need to focus on what’s next,” that Harvard has now looked into the methodology of his thought.
The American organization was looking at the contract discussions as part of a research to find out how agreements are made.

Their most recent offer is still extremely different from what we want, Abbas said. “I am beginning to fear that we may not be able to come to an agreement on a new contract, Mohamed,” he added.
Salah revealed that his goal had always been to stay with the team, saying, “I want to stay with Liverpool, but the club needs to show that they want me to stay as well.”
Despite the fact that Salah has scored or provided an assist in each of Liverpool’s first six Premier League games this season, there is question about his future just a year later.
