There's no question that he's had a dip in form this season. There has been some issues between him and the manager, whatever those issues are.“I think 100 per cent he will be leaving in the summer and I think he's having a swansong now.”After praising Salah's contribution as a player to both Liverpool and to the Premier League, Sherwood doubled down, adding: “In my opinion, I think he 100 per cent leaves that club and he gets a fantastic ovation at the end of the season, whether that’s with a bit of silverware or not.
He deserves silverware, he certainly does, but whatever happens, he’s been a magnificent servant to the club.”Salah signed a new two-year contract last April, meaning he is committed to the Premier League champions until 2027.Speaking at the weekend, Virgil van Dijk made it clear that he hopes Salah will remain at Anfield for the remainder of his contract despite speculation to the contrary.“The situation is what it is," the Liverpool captain said.
