Mohamed Salah seems more likely to depart Liverpool in the upcoming year, with Saudi Arabia appearing to be his likely destination.
According to Football Insider, Mohamed Salah is expected to depart from Liverpool in 2024 and relocate to Saudi Arabia. The Reds managed to hang on to the vital player, who is 31 years old, despite Al Ittihad’s late summer window involvement. However, they might not be able to stop the impending transfer next season.
With enormous financial resources, the Saudi Pro League plundered numerous clubs of their main players. The majority of major clubs persisted in their refusal to sell key players, but Liverpool made it extremely easy for them to acquire two of their key midfield players.
Liverpool had issues after Jordan Henderson and Fabinho moved to the Middle East, which led them to completely rework their transfer plans. Subsequently, Al Ittihad raised serious worries among the Anfield supporters when the Merseysiders rejected their £150 million offer for Mohamed Salah.
The 31-year-old major player became the subject of considerable conjecture after the Saudi window closed much later than the European one, with reports in the media suggesting a massive £225 million deal. Salah has established himself as Liverpool’s most valuable player thus far this season, and Saudi teams will likely make a second move shortly.
The window reopens in January, which is the most likely schedule. Liverpool is allegedly preparing for life without its lucky charm. Given that Al Ittihad is anticipated to make a sizable offer upon his return, the Reds may be better equipped this time to assess their future without the 31-year-old key player.
Salah has a great probability of departing Liverpool this time in order to take on a fresh challenge in the Middle East. Not content to pursue just the Egyptian, the Saudis are also considering making a move for Manchester City’s Kevin De Briuyne.
The Saudi teams have already laid a great deal of groundwork in Salah’s case; everything now hinges on the amount of money being offered. With such finances, Liverpool will adopt a forward-thinking approach to further bolster their roster under Jurgen Klopp.
Even if Salah is still their most valuable player, the club will eventually have to make a decision about the future of the 31-year-old. The Egyptian may leave in January, but it appears more probable that he will leave during the summer transfer window. He still has one year left on his enormous £350,000-per-week contract at Merseyside.
