To make matters immediately worse, Salah’s agent Ramy Abbas Issa decided to quickly take to social media and have his say.
Rather than offer a forthright opinion however, the football agent opted inside to simply publish a rather cryptic singular full-stop.
Speculation soon washed over the football world as a result, with many fans sensing a frustration shared by both player and agent, and concluding that a summer move could be on the cards.
Salah has showed his usual flashes of brilliance this season and once again leads the way in the Premier League’s scoring charts with 17 (and three assists).

Liverpool’s Egyptian star has however had several quiet performances, during which an injury-ravaged side has frequently succumb to defeat.
In December Salah left Liverpool stunned by conducting a random interview with Spanish publication AS, in which he refused to rule out the possibility of playing for Real Madrid or Barcelona in the future.
‘I think Madrid and Barcelona are two top clubs,’ Salah said during the interview.

‘Of course I want to break records here and, I repeat, all the club records, but everything is in the hands of the club.’
