Liverpool steadfastly maintains that Mo Salah is not for sale, but the news that they are considering potential alternatives has the Anfield club feeling a bit uneasy.
Even as late as the beginning of the transfer season, the major teams in European football were undoubtedly against the Saudi Pro League entirely altering the landscape of football this summer.
It has revealed which players are truly at a club for the love of their football or whether money is their primary motivation, putting the cat among the pigeons in all of the major leagues.
While it is understood that players of a specific caliber should receive compensation commensurate to their abilities, the wealth of the Saudi Pro League shouldn’t matter to them if they are content with their employment and their pay.
Yet so many top-tier players have found it difficult to resist the allure of the accessible financial riches.
According to CBS, Al-Ittihad will make Salah an enormous €150 million offer to join them this summer, according to Football Transfers.
The publication also states that the Reds are keeping an eye on West Ham’s outstanding Jarrod Bowen as a result, with Jurgen Klopp thinking he’d make the ideal temporary substitute.
The Hammers are not likely to consider losing one of their top players, especially at this point in the transfer window when it is far, far too late to locate a replacement.
However, anything is possible, as we have seen with the Saudi league. In football, you can never say never.Â
