- A new contract for Mo Salah has been a major talking point at Liverpool this term
- Salah has been sensational but is yet to agree fresh terms on his deal
- Jurgen Klopp thinks the club cannot do much more to persuade him
- But Salah's agent appeared to rubbish the statement with a Twitter post
The Egyptian has been a sensation during his time at Liverpool and many fans are nervous about the prospect of losing him if terms cannot be agreed.
Salah's current deal runs until 2023 but the topic of his renewal has been repeatedly brought up this season.
Mo Salah has the ball in his court in terms of making a decision on a new Liverpool contract, according to manager Jurgen Klopp, who insists that the club are in no rush to tie him down
Klopp (right) says there is not much more that Liverpool can do in improving terms
Salah's agent then appeared to laugh off the suggestion that the club have done all they can
Ahead of this Saturday's early kick-off against Brighton, Klopp was asked whether the club could do any more to tie Salah down on a new contract.
He said: 'Mo definitely expects this club to be ambitious, we were in the last years and we are.
'Of course we cannot do much more, that's how it is, I think meanwhile it is Mo's decision, pretty much.
'I think the club did what the club can do. There's nothing more to say about it from my point of view, it is exactly like it should be at the moment.

Salah remains one of Liverpool's most important players and is lethal on the right wing
'Nothing happened further, so no signing, no rejection or whatever so we just have to wait for that, it's completely fine, there's no rush in this situation.'
But Klopp's words then appeared to be dismissed by Salah's agent Ramy Abass Issa, who simply posted a row of seven crying-with-laughter emojis.
Salah has scored 19 Premier League goals this season so far to lead the race for the Golden Boot.
He's also scored eight goals in eight Champions League games to help the Reds into the quarter-finals of the competition.
