Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah said he cannot be “selfish” and discuss his contract situation at Liverpool, with the Premier League club focused on winning trophies.

Liverpool are second in the league on 72 points, one point below leaders Manchester City. The two teams are due to meet in Sunday’s match that could potentially decide the fate of the title race with eight rounds left.

The Merseyside club won the League Cup in February and are in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, having also reached the semi-finals of the FA Cup to remain on track for an unprecedented haul of four trophies this season.

“We are in the most important period for the team so I have to just talk about the team, focus on what is coming with the team and that is the most important thing.”

“But again, I can’t go deep into my contract now because it is a really sensitive situation. “The team need to win and I can’t be just going into the news and just talking about my contract. I just focus with the team, and that is it.”
