Harry Kane Makes Admission Which Should Quietly Secure Mohamed Salah's Liverpool Legacy

In a subtle yet significant revelation, Harry Kane has hinted at extending his contract with Bayern Munich, effectively safeguarding one of Mohamed Salah's most cherished Liverpool records.[4] This admission comes amid heightened speculation surrounding Salah's future at Anfield, following his recent explosive interview where he expressed deep frustrations with manager Arne Slot and the club.



Salah, Liverpool's third-highest all-time goalscorer with 250 goals since joining from AS Roma in 2017, stunned fans after being benched for three consecutive matches, including a 3-3 draw against Leeds United.[2] In a post-match tirade, he accused the club of "throwing me under the bus" and name-dropped Kane to highlight perceived media biases. "I remember a while ago, Harry Kane was not scoring for 10 games, everyone in the media was like ‘oh, Harry will score for sure, when it comes to Mo everyone is like ‘he needs to be on the bench’," Salah vented, underscoring his belief in unfair treatment despite his unmatched Premier League record for goals and assists.[2]

The Egyptian King's contract runs until the end of next season, but recent events have fueled rumors of a potential Saudi Pro League move. Al Hilal and Al Ittihad are frontrunners, with the former already boasting ex-Liverpool striker Darwin Núñez, who shared a strong bond with Salah.[1] Salah even hinted at bidding farewell to Anfield fans during the upcoming Brighton match before heading to the Africa Cup of Nations, warning, "I don't know what's going to happen."[1]

Enter Kane's timely hint. As Bayern Munich's star striker, the Englishman poses a threat to Salah's Premier League scoring supremacy. By signaling a long-term stay in Germany, Kane ensures he won't return to chase those records, quietly cementing Salah's legacy on Merseyside.[4] This development offers a silver lining for Liverpool supporters amid the chaos, preserving Salah's iconic status even if his Anfield chapter nears its end.
