Mo Salah vows to stay at Liverpool for final year of contract but Sadio Mane throws future into doubt
MOHAMED SALAH has confirmed he won't leave Liverpool in the summer – but team-mate Sadio Mane has refused to be drawn on his future.
The Egypt and Senegal internationals have one year left on their current contract with the Merseysiders and talks over new deals have yet to bear fruit.
But Kop favourite Salah plans to see out the remainder of his deal with the Reds, vowing: "I'm staying next season for sure."
Mane, however, has refused to pledge his long-term future to the club, telling Sky Sports: "I will answer this question after the Champions League."
Both Salah and Mane are expected to start in Saturday's Champions League final against Spanish giants Real Madrid.
And exacting revenge on Carlo Ancelotti's troops – whom they lost to in the 2018 final – is Salah's sole focus.

He said: "I don't focus on the contract at the moment. It's about the team.
"It's a really important week for us. I want to win the CL again.
"I want to see Hendo [Jordan Henderson] with that trophy in his hands again."
Spanish giants Barcelona and Real Madrid are long-term admirers of Salah, 29, and are reportedly interested in acquiring his services in the summer.
