Liverpool Football Club has reportedly put an incredible £150 million price tag for star attacker Mohamed Salah amid swirling transfer rumours. The Egyptian star became the centre of attention following an open feud with manager Jurgen Klopp during Liverpool’s recent Premier League match against West Ham United.
Salah’s fury boiled over after being dropped to the substitutes’ bench due to a drop in form, and he exchanged furious words with Klopp before being brought on late in the match. Despite Salah’s introduction, Liverpool failed to win, fuelling doubts over his future at Anfield.
With Klopp set to depart at the end of the season and Feyenoord’s Arne Slot poised to take the Charge, as uncertainty looms over Salah’s future with the Merseyside club. With just over a year remaining on his contract, Liverpool is bracing themselves for substantial offers for the 31-year-old forward.
Amidst Transfer Speculation, Liverpool Open to Offers for Mo Salah
Rumors suggest that lucrative bids from the Saudi Pro League, reportedly in excess of £100 million, were rebuffed in the previous transfer window. However, with Klopp’s imminent departure and Salah’s contract situation, Liverpool appears more open to entertaining offers for their prized asset.
Football Insider has reported that Liverpool is willing to consider bids starting at £100 million, with the potential for offers to escalate to £150 million in a bidding war scenario.
Senior correspondent Pete O’Rourke has revealed on the outlet’s Inside Track Podcast that the Saudi Pro League remains keen on securing Salah as their marquee signing.
Despite recent indications of a shift in strategy by the Saudi Pro League to refrain from splurging on aging stars like Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema, Salah’s situation is perceived differently. With several years still at the peak of his powers, Salah represents a significant investment for any potential suitors.
Liverpool’s readiness to entertain offers for Salah marks a departure from their previous stance, signalling a potential willingness to cash in on the prolific forward. Although having a temporary dry spell in front of goal, Salah has notched an impressive 24 goals this season, underlining his enduring quality and value to potential buyers.
As the summer transfer window approaches, all eyes will be on Liverpool and the unfolding saga surrounding Mohamed Salah. With a record-breaking price tag hanging over his head, Salah’s future promises to be one of the most intriguing storylines in the footballing world.
