The goal is to transfer him to Al-Ittihad club. “Al-Ittihad club is currently experiencing major administrative chaos, so the negotiation process to finalize Salah’s move to Al-Ittihad—we can say—is on hold until a new administration comes in for the club and gives final approval to complete the deal.

“A spot for Mohamed Salah is available at Al-Ittihad with Moussa Diaby nearing a departure in the summer, and it’s almost a mutual desire from both sides. Potential destinations for Salah in Saudi Arabia if he doesn’t transfer to Al-Ittihad: Al-Hilal.” If Xabi Alonso goes to Chelsea, who should be Liverpool’s next manager?
