Mohamed Salah said on Friday that he would like to spend the rest of his football career in Liverpool, saying that  his future "depends on the club".

The club have agreed a raft of new deals with senior players this year but Salah, who has under two years left on his contract, is one whose longer-term future is yet to be tied down.

"If you ask me, I would love to stay until the last day of my football career, but I can't say much about that - it's not in my hands," Salah told Sky Sports. 

"It depends on what the club want, not on me.

"At the moment I can't see myself ever playing against Liverpool. That would make me sad. It's hard, I don't want to talk about it, but it would make me really sad."

"At the moment I don't see myself playing against Liverpool but let's see what will happen in the future."

"I think when I was at Chelsea I came here and Liverpool were fighting for the title, and the atmosphere was unbelievable. And I said, 'Wow, I want to play here one day.'

"That's why when I was in Rome and there was talk between the clubs, I said I would love to play there, the atmosphere is unbelievable and I wanted to come back to England to prove people wrong, I didn't have my chance there with Chelsea, and I wanted to come back. Also when I was young, I was playing with Liverpool on the PlayStation! So there was emotion between me and the club."
