The Reds are in talks with the Serie A side over a move for the Egypt international, who is among several players Jurgen Klopp is keen to snap up this summer.
Liverpool have already had a £28million bid rejected with Roma holding out for a fee that would see the Anfield side smash their club record of £35m paid to Newcastle United for Andy Carroll in 2011.
And while the Reds are confident a deal will be struck in the coming days, Roma president Jim Pallotta has played down such claims.
Speaking to SiriusXM radio regarding Salah, Pallotta said: -€œWith these questions you seem like the Roman reporters!
-€œIn any case, there-€™s nothing in it at the moment.
-€œWe continue to receive offers for many of our players and if we were to listen to all of them, we-€™d lose three quarters of the squad. Now we-€™ll see what to do.
-€œIn order to improve, we need four or five quality reinforcements, because we-€™ll be taking part in the Champions League too next year.
-€œThis season we-€™ve been penalised by injuries, especially in defence. Alessandro Florenzi-€™s injury cost us at least four points.
-€œWe also don-€™t have enough strength in depth for the attack. Edin Dzeko scored 39 goals, but if he had got injured, I don-€™t know how our season would-€™ve ended.-€
