According to Football Insider, Mohamed Salah is close to finalizing a deal that would allow him to participate in the Saudi Pro League the following summer. The Liverpool player’s name has been mentioned in connection with a move to Saudi Arabia for some time now. And finally, he and the league have reached a verbal agreement for him to join, provided that he moves to the Middle East. This is the condition of the deal.
During the summer transfer window, Al-Ittihad had Salah on their want list as a player they wanted to acquire. The Saudi club was offered 150 million pounds sterling in exchange for the services of the 31-year-old player. However, Liverpool was not yet prepared to sever ways with their Egyptian star player.
By declining the offer, the Merseyside squad was able to keep the player that they had been using. It was predicted that Saudi teams would make another offer for Salah’s services come the winter season due to the great value that Salah brings to the PIF. In the past, Liverpool has stated that they will not be selling the forward who once played for Roma during the winter transfer window, regardless of the offer that is made.
Salah is an essential component in the Saudi Professional League. They have previously established an agreement with the player on a trade, and now they are willing to wait until the end of the season before making the move. The transfer of Salah’s rights has been authorized in paper, and he has verbally granted his consent to play in the Scottish Premier League.
He will reach the age of 32 at the conclusion of the season, and the summer of 2025 will mark the end of his current deal. It is possible that the SPL will pay little more than 150 million pounds to acquire his services. Since he has only one more year left on his contract, Liverpool will likely try to make a profit off of him this coming summer. At this juncture, the Saudi Professional League has a good chance of achieving their goal of signing the Egyptian international player. They have worked hard to get to this position.
