The agent of Liverpool’s star player, Mohamed Salah, has responded to speculation about a potential lucrative offer from a Saudi Arabian club.
In 2023, we will see several top talents leaving European football for the Middle East, following the trend set by players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, and Riyad Mahrez.
Recent reports suggest that Salah has caught the attention of Saudi clubs, with Al-Riyadiah claiming that Al-Ittihad has presented him with a contract offer amounting to €180 million (£155 million or $198 million).
It’s important to note that Salah signed a new three-year contract with Liverpool at Anfield in 2022.
As a result, his representative, Ramy Abbas, has tweeted: “If we considered leaving Liverpool this year, we wouldn’t have renewed the contract at the club last summer. Mohamed remains committed to Liverpool”.
That will be music to the ears of those on the red half of Merseyside, with Salah having been a talismanic presence for Liverpool across his six years at the club.
Salah, who is a three-time Premier League Golden Boot winner, has registered 186 goals for Liverpool through 305 appearances, breaking countless records along the way and helping Jurgen Klopp’s side to seven trophy triumphs.
