Liverpool icon Steven Gerrard has previously played down a move to bring Mohamed Salah to the Saudi Pro League.

Liverpool were the subject of an eye-watering verbal bid during the 2023 summer transfer window.

The Reds rejected a fee in the region of £150million as the Liverpool record-breaker was eyed as part of the latest high-profile arrival to the kingdom's premier football league.

Gerrard, who took charge in Dammam in the summer of 2023, was previously asked whether he would look to bring Salah to his side.

However, the Liverpool legend dismissed the claim - citing that he can stay at the club to win more Premier League's and European cups.

"No," he responded to a question over whether he would push to sign Salah.

"The answer is no because Mohamed Salah is my favourite player, I love Liverpool Football Club, so Mohamed can stay where he is.

"When he wins more leagues and more Champions Leagues with Liverpool, we'll maybe consider it."

The 44-year-old added in October: "I’m not surprised, because I think he’s obsessed with the game.

I hope we get more out of him, but I’m not surprised because the ones that are obsessed with the profession and they’ve got that level of talent, it’s no surprise that the consistent levels are there all the time."

As it stands, Salah can look to fire Liverpool to a second Premier League crown and equal Manchester United's total of 20 top-flight titles.

The 32-year-old tops the goalscoring and assists charts after helping guide the Reds to a six-point lead at the summit of English football.

However, the contract question remains for Salah, who has been able to negotiate with overseas clubs over a possible pre-contract agreement since the beginning of January.
