"After a 3-2 win at Southampton in November 2024, Salah dropped the bombshell that he was "probably more out than in" with regards to his Anfield future. The Egypt international had moved into the final year of his Liverpool contract and at that stage, looked unlikely to sign a new deal despite a desire to stay put. There had also been speculation about a potential move to the Saudi Pro League and Salah felt the need to set the record straight."
"Salah's comments ramped up the pressure on the Liverpool hierarchy as his goals propelled the club towards the Premier League title. According to Opta, Salah's goals and assists had been worth 17 points to Liverpool at that point - the most of any player in the division. What happened next: It took another five months, but Salah did eventually sign a new two-year deal in April."
High-profile rants and outbursts in the Premier League have ranged from measured and planned statements to spontaneous displays of frustration and anger. Mohamed Salah publicly claimed after a 3-2 win at Southampton that he was "probably more out than in" regarding his Anfield future while entering the final year of his contract, amid Saudi Pro League speculation. Opta credited his goals and assists with 17 points for Liverpool at that time. Five months later Salah signed a two-year deal in April but produced only five goals and three assists in 18 appearances that season. Earlier incidents include Roy Keane's reaction after a 4-1 defeat by Middlesbrough.
