Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai has expressed his desire to continue to play alongside star forward Mohamed Salah at the club. Both players were on the scoresheet as the Reds opened up a healthy eight-point gap atop the Premier League standings with their win over Southampton. They beat the Saints 3-2 at St. Mary's Stadium on Sunday, November 24.
Arne Slot has largely built on what Jürgen Klopp left at Liverpool, with Egyptian forward Salah still playing a talismanic role for the Reds. The Dutch manager named the forward in the starting XI to face Southampton, and he delivered a second-half brace.
Mohamed Salah is set to run out of a contract at the club at the end of the season, at full-time. Hungarian midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai told the media that he hopes to remain teammates with Salah for a long time, thereby urging him to extend his stay at the club.

“Everyone knows Mo. He just has to keep going and I hope I play with him for as long as I can," he said (via Anfield Sector).
Mohamed Salah had two weeks off as he was left out of Egypt's squad that faced Cape Verde and Botswana during the international break. The forward made his rest count as he scored twice and struck the frame of the goal late in the game.
A Liverpool legend in his rights, Salah has now scored 10 goals and provided six assists for the Reds in 12 Premier League games this season. The Reds will be desperate to tie him to a new contract that will take him beyond this season at Anfield.
Mohamed Salah guides Liverpool to win over Southampton
Liverpool ace Mohamed Salah was the star of the show as his side edged relegation-threatened Southampton 3-2 at St. Mary's Stadium. The Egypt international scored a brace to lead his side to a comeback victory and help them open up a healthy lead atop the standings.
Dominik Szoboszlai was the beneficiary of a gift from the Saints backline when he opened the scoring after 30 minutes. The home side equalised against the run of play when they were awarded a contentious penalty. Adam Armstrong scored the rebound after seeing his initial effort saved in the 42nd minute.
Southampton stunned the visitors after the interval, with Matheus Fernandes finding the net after a swift counterattack in the 56th minute. Salah drew the Reds level in the 65th minute before making sure of the win from the penalty spot in the 83rd minute.
