Salah only signed a new two-year contract at Liverpool in April, with his deal expiring in June 2027.

Saudi to offer Liverpool ‘significant’ dealBorson insisted Saudi clubs will take on the winger’s “significant” wage commitments despite his dip in form this season.

It’s starting to look like that might be the case with Salah. Not only will they presumably pay quite a hefty fee, but they’ll also take on his wage commitment over the next two years, which is really significant.” Salah, who has played just 45 minutes in the past three Premier League games, has registered five goals and three assists in 19 appearances this season.
