Saudi Pro League teams have not cooled their interest in Mohamed Salah, the 31-year-old Liverpool phenomenon. Rudy Galetti claims that Saudi Pro League teams are making it a top priority to get Salah, fueling speculation over the Egyptian superstar’s impending transfer to the Middle East in 2024. Even though they failed in their attempts to sign him during the summer transfer window, they seem determined to keep trying for the next transfer window.
Al-Ittihad, a Saudi Arabian club, has been one of the most persistent suitors for Salah, actively chasing him for weeks. On the day before the European transfer deadline, their dogged pursuit culminated in a series of large proposals for Salah’s services. Liverpool, though, were adamant in their resolve to keep the Egyptian superstar. Jurgen Klopp flatly refused to consider any bids for the former AS Roma winger. Reports indicated that Salah himself was inclined to remain at the Merseyside club despite being offered a deal that would have ranked among the highest in football.
