While Saudi Arabia is being touted as the likely destination for Mohamed Salah, the MLS could also be there for Mohamed Salah in the summer. After nine years of extraordinary service, countless goals and every major trophy on his CV, Salah is choosing to draw a line under his Anfield story while he still feels he can compete at the highest level.

Liverpool have confirmed that an agreement is in place for him to depart on a free transfer, underlining how much the club value his legacy and wish to give him control over his next move. Lewis Steele of the Daily Mail has suggested that San Diego and Chicago Fire could be among the MLS sides to make a move for Mohamed Salah ahead of the summer window: “For Salah, the Saudis are coming but they are not the only ones.

MLS sides, including Egyptian-owned San Diego and Chicago Fire, have previously weighed up whether to make a marquee signing in the same year that America hosts a World Cup.” “Given he will leave on a free transfer, European sides are suddenly back in the game to sign Salah. Sources say clubs in the Gulf nation would at the very least match his wages of around £400,000 a week but make it tax free, which is a similar structure to what was discussed in 2023.” Wherever he ends up, Salah will leave Liverpool with his reputation intact as one of the greatest players ever to wear the shirt.
