Carragher Criticizes Salah for Prioritizing Contracts Over Liverpool's Struggles

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has escalated his criticism of Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah, asserting that Salah's silence amid the club's recent performance issues suggests he is more focused on contract negotiations than on the team's challenges.

Salah, who is currently experiencing a dip in form, has faced scrutiny following a series of losses, with some analysts calling for his removal from the starting lineup.

In an interview with "Sky Sports," Carragher remarked that Salah only speaks out when he is in contention for individual awards or negotiating a new contract, while remaining silent during difficult periods. He noted that Dutch captain Virgil van Dijk consistently addresses the media on behalf of the team after losses.

Furthermore, Carragher mentioned that Salah used to be more outspoken regarding his personal future, but now lacks the leadership expected of a captain to uphold the club's image.

This critique comes at a time when Salah has scored only eight goals this season, a significant drop compared to the 22 goals he had at the same point last season, reflecting a noticeable decline in his performance.
