Saudi Arabia put £150m deal on the table for Liverpool forward | OneFootball

Liverpool have been tipped to begin the process of replacing Mohamed Salah in summer 2026.

The Egyptian King, 33, has been at the club since 2017 - establishing himself as the greatest player in modern Anfield history.

Last season he signed a contract extension until 2027 - earning him £400k per week.

But all is not right with Salah at present. Liverpool head coach Arne Slot and sporting director Richard Hughes are not getting a terrific return on their investment.

The Premier League champions have lost six of their last seven matches - and Salah’s performances have come under increasing scrutiny.

That’s why we’ve seen extensive links with players like Michael Olise and Antoine Semenyo - two wing operators who could arrive on Merseyside next summer.

And if Hughes decides to move on from the two-time African player of the year then he has got Saudi Arabia lined up as a potential destination.

Saudis line up £150m deal for Salah

According to a new report in TBR Football, there is a £150m PER YEAR deal on the table for Salah - who will also be given some incredible perks in the Kingdom for moving to the SPL.

Indeed it’s been claimed that Salah moving to Saudi Arabia is now inevitable although a January move can at this stage be ruled out.

“Mo Salah and Pro League links won’t go away, but he doesn’t want them to; he will end up in Saudi Arabia one day,” a report reads.

“I can confirm that the Saudis’ offer to Salah is an open one, the deal is ready for him as and when he wants it.

“They are not talking to him now, and haven’t talked to him or Liverpool about a deal in January; they don’t really need to, they are ready when he is.”

Can Salah SAVE Liverpool career?

It remains to be seen what Liverpool’s plans are with Salah. Having avoided losing him for free last summer there is a decision to be made by Hughes and Slot.

He will be off to the AFCON in December before playing at the FIFA World Cup for Egypt next summer. The strain is beginning to tell on a player who will turn 34 before the start of next season.

Let’s hope Salah can sort some consistency before then - which will allow him to go closer to the various goalscoring records he’s got in his sights.
