Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai has opened up on Mohamed Salah's behavior on the pitch. The Hungarian revealed that the Egyptian always demands the ball even in tight areas as he hailed his impact on and off the pitch.

Liverpool had yet another scintillating performance as they crushed Tottenham Hotspur 6-3 in the Premier League at the weekend (December 22). Mohamed Salah stole the show with a mesmerizing display, contributing two goals and as many assists.

After the game, Dominik Szoboszlai was asked about Mohamed Salah and the midfielder made an interesting revelation about the Egyptian's on-pitch behavior.

“You have to know, Mo screams always your name so, even [when] he’s not free he screams your name, so you have to [pass to him]!" he told Stadium Astro.
"You can see he does his job every game, score goals, giving assists. [He] helps us every time with everything, not only on the pitch, outside the pitch as well, so yeah, we are just happy to have him,” added the Hungarian.

It goes without says that Mohamed Salah remains the go-to man in this Liverpool team. The Egyptian has been arguably the best player in the Premier League since the 2024-25 campaign kicked off, leaving fans in awe with his consistent performances.

So far, the Egyptian forward has made 24 appearances for Liverpool across all competitions, recording 18 goals and 15 assists to his name and totaling a staggering 33 goal contributions. That includes 15 goals and 11 assists in the Premier League, two goals and four assists in the UFA Champions League as well as one goal in the EFL Cup.

Meanwhile, Dominik Szoboszlai has also had a promising stint in the Reds' midfield this season. The Hungarian has bagged 23 appearances for the club in all competitions, contributing three goals and four assists.

Mohamed Salah's Liverpool future still the subject of speculation

Mohamed Salah's contract situation at Liverpool is no secret. The Egyptian appears to be closing in on the exit route from Anfield. His current contract with the Reds is set to expire in July, which means that he'd be free to begin negotiations with suitors after the turn of the year.

As it stands, there are no concrete developments that suggest that the attacker will pen a new deal at Anfield. Instead, reports continue to link him with an exit from the club, with a switch to Saudi Arabia being heavily touted.

According to GOAL, Al Ittihad have shown interest in signing the attacker in a deal that could be as high as £215 million. Contrary to that report though, ESPN have claimed that Salah could be open to signing a new contract at the club. It remains to be seen what the future holds for the player.
