That’s according to Reds legend Jamie Carragher.
The Egyptian has been in stunning form since his summer switch from Roma and Sunday’s brace against Tottenham took him up to 21 Premier League goals this season.
The 25-year-old’s impressive performances for Jurgen Klopp’s side have led to interest from other clubs, with Real Madrid reportedly keen to bring him to the Bernabeu.
Liverpool will be desperate to keep hold of their talisman, particularly after losing Philippe Coutinho to Barcelona last month.
And while Carragher is hoping Salah will stay, he admits it’s difficult to keep hold of star players when Europe’s heavyweights come calling.
“The contract that he signed and the position Liverpool are in with Coutinho just going, they can’t afford to let another big name player go.”

“Well, fingers crossed,” he told talkSPORT.
“He’s only just arrived so we want to enjoy him for as long as we can.
“There’s no doubt when you are a player that good, it’s not just Liverpool’s problem - it’s any club’s problem if Real Madrid or Barcelona ever come for one of your players.
“Let’s not forget (Cristiano) Ronaldo when he was possibly the best player in the world left Manchester United; he left when Manchester United were still playing European Cup finals.
“It’s very difficult, and in some ways you have to sort of just accept it and try and get the biggest fee you can possibly get - as Liverpool did with Coutinho.

“I’d expect Salah to be at the club for the next few years. The contract that he signed and the position Liverpool are in with Coutinho just going, they can’t afford to let another big name player go.”
Liverpool are currently third in the Premier League, five points behind second-placed Manchester United.
They return to action on Sunday as they travel to struggling Southampton.
