Andres Iniesta believes Mohamed Salah had the makings of a “special” signing for Barcelona.

Interest in Salah has also been notable in Spain from Barcelona and Real Madrid in particular in recent years too.

But Salah stayed loyal to Jurgen Klopp and the Reds, staying in the Premier League.

At the time, Barcelona president Joan Laporta hinted that Salah was interested in a switch.

I can't say if we're in talks for [Robert] Lewandowski and [Mohamed] Salah or not, or in the club, they'll tell me that I'm creating problems in the negotiations."

Indeed, Barcelona made a promise to Salah in the summer of 2022.

In the end, that promise wasn't enough and Salah inked a new deal with Liverpool.

Now, Barca legend Iniesta has shared his regret at the Catalan giants not managing to get a deal over the line for Salah.

Speaking on the Vamos La Liga podcast, he insisted: “Signing Mohamed Salah would have been a special deal for Barcelona.”

Salah's deal saw him become the highest-paid player in the club’s history.
