Liverpool’s failure during the first half of the season is what Al-Ittihad is banking on.
Al-Ittihad wants to make another attempt in January after being unsuccessful in their summer pursuit of Mohamed Salah, when even a world record offer of £215 million wasn’t enough for the Reds.
According to The Mirror, if Liverpool finds themselves out of the title race in the new year, the Saudis believe their chances will be improved.
Al-Ittihad thinks they’ll be more open to selling if their hopes of winning the title are gone.
The topic of personal terms has already been covered. Salah was offered a stunning £1.5 million each week by Saudi officials in exchange for joining the Saudi Pro League.
