Liverpool was completely shocked last week when it was widely reported that Al Ittihad of the Saudi Professional League is really interested in recruiting Salah.
Al Ittihad reportedly had a £150 million deal rejected by Liverpool on Friday afternoon.
The Saudi Arabian team is allegedly going to Liverpool with an offer of $175 million or possibly $200 million.
Jordan has given an explanation of why Liverpool would accept the deal if a higher offer comes knocking on transfer deadline day.
On talkSPORT, he stated: “Well, the deal’s construction is one of three things, isn’t it? Either the Saudis are being foolish, Liverpool and the deal are conspiring to make it into a deal through clever structuring, or the Saudis are just being showboats.
“If the Saudis are merely playing for show, Liverpool will have to agree to the agreement if they turn around and claim that they will accept it.
The more I hear about this transaction, the more I get the impression that Liverpool and the Saudi Arabian club have planned it out and are going to carry it out.
“It’s about structure, it’s about quantity,” Jordan stated. “I would believe Liverpool would complete that deal if the offer suddenly became £150 million on the nail plus £25 million add-ons.
“I don’t think that will happen; I think the concept of Jurgen Klopp will walk out the door. Saudis are not naive; while they may lack sports experience, they have financial industry experience.
Why would you approach Liverpool with your initial offer on August 31 when you are aware that one of the levers Liverpool can pull is to replace him? They will have voices around them. Why act now when Liverpool can’t pull that lever much longer?
