Liverpool fans may have been concerned to see the major names in world football who have been linked to, or have already succumbed to, the riches of Saudi Arabia, and with officials from the Middle East already name-checking Mo Salah, those concerns have grown.
‘Is there any risk that we lose Mo Salah to a Saudi Arabian club this summer?’ asked James Pearce in his column for The Athletic.
‘Salah isn’t going anywhere this summer,’ said the former Liverpool ECHO reporter. He has two years left on his contract at Liverpool, and I don’t see a scenario in which either the club or the player would want to leave, no matter how much money is on the table.

‘Salah was hurt by what happened last season, particularly missing out on Champions League qualification, but he is fully committed to leading the fightback in 2023-24,’ says the club.
Last season was undoubtedly disappointing for the Egyptian King, especially given the team’s failure to qualify for the Champions League for the upcoming season.
However, the above response emphasises our No.11’s unwavering commitment to the club, regardless of our final league position last time out.
The prospect of the 31-year-old staying and refusing to succumb to the allure of financial gain in Saudi Arabia is cause for celebration for Liverpool fans, and with two years remaining on his contract, his loyalty and determination to bounce back serve as a beacon of hope for the upcoming season.
As we all wait for the new campaign, we can take comfort in knowing that our beloved Egyptian superstar will be leading the charge, ready to create more unforgettable moments in his famous red shirt.
