The Arabs plan to offer about 100 million euros to the Reds in order to include the striker in their team.
In addition to the dealings with the Merseyside club, the talks with the Egyptian are encouraging and could break Cristiano Ronaldo’s records. According to the information, the Saudis will provide more than 200 million euros to the athlete, in a three-year contract. The Portuguese is currently the highest paid player in the league, earning only 200 million in European currency.
Intrigued by the union project, there are two points Salah can convince. Tigres do not view the FIFA Club World Cup 2023 as any other tournament and the aim is to be champions, which could convince a player to make a move. Moreover, the opportunity to work in a Muslim country, which is his religion, will also catch his eye. The religious argument even convinced potential teammate Karim Benzema to accept the current national champion’s proposal.
????????? Urgent: Mohamed Salah wants to leave Liverpool!
Al-Ittihad will offer him a salary that will make him the highest-paid player in the Saudi Professional League. ??????????????????
