Cascarino makes 'shocking' Mo Salah contract admission

Liverpool and Mohamed Salah will win the Premier League title if they avoid defeat against Tottenham on Sunday.

The Egypt international has played a key role in the Anfield giants' top-flight success this season, notching 27 goals and 18 assists in 33 league appearances.

Liverpool supporters were therefore relieved when the 32-year-old penned a fresh two-year contract, eliminating the possibility of a departure this summer.

Salah will be keen to get himself on the scoresheet at Anfield on Sunday, and fire the Reds towards their second Premier League title in five years.

Cascarino jokes that Liverpool shouldn't have handed Salah a new deal

The forward has not scored for the Reds since bagging a brace in a 3-1 victory over Southampton on 8 March.

Speaking on talkSPORT [27 April, 09.14am], Neil Mellor said: "Salah’s due a goal by the way, he’s gone six games without a goal, can you believe that, Mo Salah?"

Natalie Sawyer added: "Shocking form, shocking form."

Tony Cascarino laughed as he said: "They shouldn’t have given him a new deal."

Liverpool should cruise to victory over Tottenham

The Reds require a draw to seal the Premier League title on Sunday, but Arne Slot's men should be able to beat Tottenham in front of an expectant Anfield crowd.

While Liverpool have cruised their way to a heavy lead over Arsenal in the title race, Ange Postecoglou's men are enduring a woeful campaign and are set to finish in the bottom half.

Furthermore, the North Londoners' attention will already be more focused on their Europa League semi-final with Bodo Glimt on Thursday 1 May, which could prompt Postecoglou to make changes to his lineup.

The Reds should have far too much quality at their disposal for Tottenham to deal with, while the atmosphere at Anfield should roar Slot's men on to victory, let alone the draw they need to seal the Premier League title.

Salah will be determined to get back to his goal-scoring best, while Trent Alexander-Arnold will be eager to put in another strong performance ahead of his likely move to Real Madrid.
