Mohamed Salah's future at Liverpool remains uncertain as Saudi Pro League clubs express confidence in securing his signature if he decides to leave. Reports suggest a transfer fee of around £100 million could be required for the Egyptian international, who has 18 months remaining on his contract worth over £400,000 a week.
Liverpool have no plans to sell Salah in January, despite interest from clubs like Al-Ittihad, who made a £52 million offer and a two-year contract worth £155 million in the summer of 2023. The Reds rejected a £100 million bid, potentially rising to £150 million, on transfer deadline day that same year.
Other Saudi clubs, including Al Hilal, Al Qadisah, and Neom, are reportedly monitoring the situation. However, one source described the transfer scenario as 'difficult', though confidence remains that a deal could materialise if Salah shows openness to a move.
Salah was omitted from Liverpool's midweek Champions League clash against Inter Milan after declaring he had been 'thrown under the bus' by being left out of the starting XI for three Premier League fixtures. Manager Arne Slot confirmed that the decision was made collectively and that he has no reason not to want Salah to stay.
Slot stated he would hold talks with Salah ahead of the Brighton match at Anfield, adding, 'The next time I speak about Mo should be with him, not in here.' Salah is expected to return to the squad for the Premier League clash.
