“I think I said in the beginning of the season, I just want to win the Premier League more than anything else," Salah said after his new deal was confirmed.



Former Liverpool midfielder Fabinho also moved to Jeddah, though he ultimately wouldn't be joined by Salah.

Al Ittihad finished that season down in fifth, failing to qualify for continental competition.

Al Hilal were also mentioned as potential suitors in 2023, but they had already spent big on Neymar and Aleksandar Mitrovic.

Neymar has since departed, returning to Brazil with Santos after an injury-hit time in the gulf.

Al Hilal may feel they're in a position to wait and see how realistic a move for Salah might be in a couple of years' time.

There have been a few moments in the last few years when Real Madrid have been linked with a Salah swoop.

It might just be that one of them comes in the dugout, with former Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso strongly linked, and he may have his own ideas when it comes to recruitment.
