The Saudi league won’t be the only destination available to Mohamed Salah, as press reports have revealed the emergence of a club from outside the Saudi league with a strong desire to secure the services of the Liverpool star.
Salah’s situation at Anfield has become much more complicated after his statements criticizing the management and Arnie Slot for not playing in the last three matches and what he considered an attempt by officials to make him a “scapegoat” for Liverpool’s recent decline in performance.
The Saudi newspaper “Al-Riyadh” indicated that the Saudi league is closely monitoring Salah’s situation, which will be definitively decided after his return from participating with the Egyptian national team in the Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.
According to the “Givemesport” network, the latest development is that the American club San Diego has a strong interest in signing Salah and is prepared to complete the deal in January rather than waiting until the summer, just like the Saudi league clubs.
The American club is owned by Egyptian billionaire Mohamed Mansour, who quickly transformed it into one of the strongest teams in the country. San Diego topped the Western Conference standings before losing in the playoff semifinals to Vancouver.
There are currently many discussions within San Diego about pursuing Salah, although the American club has not yet submitted a formal offer to the 33-year-old, despite having the financial resources to make him one of the most expensive players in the United States.
Salah’s future with Liverpool hinges primarily on the fate of manager Arne Slott. A prolonged stay for Slott would likely mean the “Egyptian King” leaves the English club in the winter transfer window, while Slott’s impending departure could drastically alter the situation.
