Mohamed Salah, the "king" of Liverpool in the English Premier League (EPL), is moving to Saudi Arabia.
Salah, one of the greatest strikers in Liverpool's history. His contract with Liverpool expires next summer. However, there is no discussion about renewing his contract yet. Salah then made a "bomb" remark after his 3-0 victory over Manchester United.
Salah said, "On my way out of the stadium, I thought, 'This could be the last one. No one in the club is talking about renewing their contracts yet. So I thought, 'OK, let's play the last season, let's see what happens at the end of the season. I feel free to play football. Let's see what happens next year."
In other words, he has publicly stated that this season is his last with Liverpool. When Salah made a "bomb statement," news broke that Liverpool was moving. "According to internal sources, Liverpool will begin negotiations with Salah to renew the contract after Salah's bombshell remarks. Salah's negotiations will begin within a few weeks, and Salah's future in Liverpool will enter a new phase," said England's Football Insider.
Liverpool has begun to move, but it is belated. According to local media, Saudi Arabia is already actively pursuing Salah's transfer. It plans to sign a pre-contract in January and recruit it next summer. There is no transfer fee because Salah's contract with Liverpool is terminated. Instead, Saudi Arabia plans to pay Salah an all-time salary. And because there is no transfer fee, Saudi Arabia plans to pay Salah a down payment.
This is the same case with Kylian Mbappe, who left Paris Saint-Germain PSG for Real Madrid as an FA. Since there is no transfer fee for Real Madrid, they paid a huge amount of money equivalent to the transfer fee as a down payment. Mbappe received a down payment of 150 million euros 222.7 billion won from Real Madrid.
Saudi Arabia is expected to offer a three-year contract to Salah. The Saudi Arabian team is expected to pay a total of 150 million euros 222.7 billion won per year, equivalent to Neymar of Al-Hilal. If the team signs a three-year contract, it will receive a total of 450 million euros 668.2 billion won. On top of that, it will receive an additional 90 million euros 133.6 billion won as a down payment. If so, its total income would be 540 million euros 801.8 billion won. It is a huge amount of money.
The British media Caught Offside reported that Saudi Arabia still has a lot of interest in Salah. Saudi Arabia is preparing to make a very profitable offer to Salah. The three most likely clubs to recruit Salah include Al Hilal, Al Itihad, and Al Ahli, which are owned by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund PIF. If Salah is recruited next summer, there is no need to pay a transfer fee to Liverpool, and they will offer a down payment of 90 million euros to Salah.
