Salah’s Future Amid January Speculation
A British newspaper report published on Wednesday detailed the latest on Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah's future, the captain of Egypt and Liverpool's talisman.
Salah's name has been linked with a possible exit from Liverpool during the upcoming January window, amid disagreements with club leadership and the coaching staff.
According to The Mirror, Salah is expected to remain at Liverpool beyond the winter market, especially after Saudi clubs reportedly cooled their interest.
The report adds that a move to Saudi Arabia seemed likely if Salah left Anfield, since clubs there can buy him and pay his wages.
Salah's Liverpool contract runs until June 2027 and he currently earns around 350,000 pounds per week.
Saudi interest faded due to the tight January window and Salah's continued involvement with Egypt at the Africa Cup of Nations.
Coach Arne Slot's comments before and after Liverpool's game with Brighton, the last Salah played before joining his national team, suggested a cooling of tensions and renewed rapport.
Earlier reports linked Salah with clubs such as Al Hilal and Al Qadsiah; Salah stays; jokes aside.
Punchline: My transfer budget is lighter than Salah's left foot.
