However, just as the historic free-agency deal looked complete, a dramatic financial dispute with his agent left the move hanging by a thread.While Salah’s contract situation has had football fans on edge for months, it turns out the Egyptian king actually gave his green light to a shocking move to Turkey. However, just as the historic transfer looked complete, a dramatic U-turn from the player's camp left the entire deal hanging by a thread."Salah said yes" - The secret agreement revealedSpeaking in an interview with WinWin.com According to Adalı, the negotiations were far more advanced than anyone in the British or Turkish press had anticipated.
Salah was reportedly sold on the project presented by the Black Eagles, engaging in direct dialogue with the club's hierarchy to map out his future in Turkey.“Salah gave his approval," Adalı revealed in a stunning press briefing. Adalı didn't hold back when pointing the finger at a staggering, unprecedented commission request that brought talks to a pause.An astronomical 35% commission fee was demanded on top of the agreed player contract.Beşiktaş formally rejected the revised terms, walking away from the table until demands are lowered.“Once the media reported the transfer was 'done', the agent immediately raised his demands," Adalı explained with visible frustration.
We rejected the revised demands outright, though our talks are technically continuing.”Interestingly, the Beşiktaş president was quick to shield the Liverpool icon from blame, suggesting that Salah is likely oblivious to the financial greed threatening to ruin his next career move.“We negotiate only with Ramy Abbas. We do not believe Salah is aware of these numbers," Adalı added, confirming they are strictly dealing with Salah's long-term representative while trying to block out external intermediaries attempting to hijack the historic deal.In an unusually aggressive move, Beşiktaş released a scathing official club statement targeting prominent Turkish journalist Yağız Sabuncuoğlu, accusing him of spreading "pure fiction" and actively sabotaging the club's hard work behind the scenes.“The posts made by journalist Yağız Sabuncuoğlu regarding our club's transfer processes and the rumored transfer conditions are absolutely products of the imagination," the official club statement read.
