“Mohamed Salah will be in the Saudi League next season. Contracts have been signed,” Mido, who represented Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United, wrote on X to his 5.6 million followers.
Saudi Pro League club Al-Ittifaq had reportedly tabled an offer of £150 million for the 31-year-old last summer but Liverpool rejected it.
However, as per fresh reports, the Saudi clubs will go on a shopping spree when the summer transfer window opens with a bunch of Premier League stars on their radars.
Salah’s current contract with Liverpool is valid till 2025.
Since his arrival from AS Roma in 2017, the Egyptian superstar has scored over 150 goals for Liverpool and won several titles including the Premier League, FA Cup, Champions League, FIFA Club World among others.
Salah is a three-time Premier League Golden Boot Award winner which is given to the leading goal-scorer in a season. In October 2022, he broke the record for the fastest ever hat-trick in a Champions League fixture, hitting three goals inside six minutes and 12 seconds against Rangers.
Salah had suffered a hamstring issue when representing Egypt at the Africa Cup of Nations and later missed four Premier League games as well. He scored a goal against Brentford on his comeback before again being sidelined due to a muscular issue.
As per a report in ESPN, besides Salah, the Saudi clubs are also targeting Kevin De Bruyne, Virgil van Dijk, Alisson, Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes, Bernardo Silva , Raphael Varane and Andreas Pereira.
