It’s been shut down by Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool more than once now, but speculation linking Mohamed Salah with a transfer to the Saudi Pro League continues to linger around Anfield. The Reds talisman, 31, is no stranger to speculation: just last summer he put pen-to-paper on an improved contract to quash rumours that he was poised to complete a blockbuster transfer to one of Europe’s leading lights
Ramy Abbas, Salah’s agent, shot down rumors that his client was considering leaving Liverpool on social media last month, claiming: “If we had been thinking about leaving LFC this year, we wouldn’t have renewed the deal last summer. Mohamed is still dedicated to LFC.
However, since Al-Ittihad boosted their interest by submitting a sizable bid to Liverpool, Abbas has been particularly quiet. Furthermore, according to The Athletic, the player’s team did not refute allegations that Salah had reached a personal agreement with his extremely wealthy suitors, who apparently want to pay him £1.5 million per week.
