Liverpool maintained their lead at the top of the Premier League table with a 2-1 win over Chelsea at Anfield on Sunday.
The Reds had temporarily been knocked off of top spot by Manchester City following their win over Wolves, but a 2-1 victory moved Arne Slot’s side back into top spot.
Mohamed Salah put the hosts in front from the penalty spot at Anfield, after Levi Colwill had fouled Curtis Jones.
Nicolas Jackson drew the visitors level after the break, but Salah then turned provider to set up Jones for what proved to be the winner.
Salah now has a combined 13 goals and assists in 11 matches across all competitions so far this season, but the Egyptian’s future remains uncertain with just months remaining on his current contract.
Now, it appears that the player himself is demanding a huge new deal.
The 32-year-old joined Liverpool from Italian side Roma seven years ago, and has since scored 218 times in 360 games for the club, as well as providing 95 assists.
