Mo Salah ‘likely to leave Liverpool’ in crushing transfer blow to Jurgen Klopp

Liverpool may be dealt a hammer blow this week as Mohamed Salah is reportedly ‘likely’ to leave the club before the transfer deadline. Jurgen Klopp was adamant last week when reports emerged of Saudi Arabia’s interest in snapping up Salah in the final days of the transfer window.

He said: “We don’t have an offer, Mo Salah is still a Liverpool player, obviously for all the things we do, he’s essential and will be. There’s nothing there. If there would be something, the answer would be no.

My life philosophy is I think about a problem when I have it. At the moment, there’s absolutely nothing. I said already if there is something, the answer would be no.”

But the situation may change this week with Jan Aage Fjortoft reporting that Salah will ‘likely’ leave the club in the coming days. He wrote on X: “I understand it’s likely that Salah will leave Liverpool this week.”

Saudi Arabian side Al Ittihad are said to be the club hoping to snatch Salah from Anfield before the deadline. It’s claimed they are willing to offer Salah the same salary that Cristiano Ronaldo earns at Al Nassr.

Salah’s possible departure would leave Liverpool needing to bring in a new right winger capable of replacing Salah. But Liverpool would have little time to find an adequate replacement with just two days left of the transfer window.
