Liverpool have reportedly turned down a bid worth £150m for their attacker Mohamed Salah from Saudi Pro League side Al-Ittihad.
The Reds on the other hand have insisted that the player is not for Sale and that is their final say as far as the club is concerned.
Reds boss Jurgen Klopp revealed last week that Salah was “100% committed” to the club and he also reiterated the club’s stance that the player was not for sale.
Speaking on Salah, Jurgen Klopp said: “The position remains the same. Absolutely no doubt about that. That’s how it is. Nothing else to say.”
Liverpool have no time to react to Salah’s departure or sign a new player with the transfer window closing by 23:00 BST on Friday, September 1.
The Egyptians’ agent had previously dismissed claims that Salah will move to Saudi Arabia but has not responded following the latest links with Al-Ittihad.
Salah’s agent, Ramy Abbas Issa wrote in a social media post on 7th August, 2023, saying: “Mohamed remains committed to Liverpool.”
“If we considered leaving Liverpool this year, we wouldn’t have renewed the contract last summer.”
Salah has started in all three Premier League matches played by Liverpool this season and have helped the team garner 7 points.
The former AS Roma and Chelsea player has helped Liverpool over the years, scoring 187 goals in 308 games for the Reds and registered 76 assists.
The attacker has also won the Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, Fifa Club World Cup and Uefa Super Cup during his time at Anfield.
The Liverpool ace has also bagged or shared the Premier League Golden Boot three times and been named the PFA player of the year twice.
The Reds have already sold midfielders Fabinho and Jordan Henderson to Al-Ittihad and Al-Ettifaq in the Saudi Pro League.
Ex Liverpool star Roberto Firmino also left the club as a free agent to join the Saudi Pro League side Al-Ahli after his contract expired.
