Mohamed Salah to Depart Liverpool: Potential Destinations for the Egyptian Star
Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah will leave the club at the end of the 2025-26 season, officially confirming his departure after nine seasons with the Reds. The 33-year-old’s next move is already the subject of intense speculation, with several clubs across the globe potentially vying for his services.
Saudi Arabia a Leading Contender
A move to the Saudi Pro League appears to be a strong possibility. Al-Ittihad has been consistently linked with Salah, and is currently viewed as a frontrunner for his signature. Sources indicate that Salah has been offered a package comparable to Cristiano Ronaldo’s current deal, potentially making him one of the highest-paid players in football history, along with a significant ambassadorial role.
MLS and European Interest
Beyond Saudi Arabia, potential destinations include Major League Soccer (MLS). One intriguing possibility mentioned is a partnership with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez at Inter Miami.
“Inter Miami would be a realistic option given their ability to attract world-class stars.”
European clubs are also in the mix, with PSG, Inter, and Galatasaray all mentioned as potential suitors. Notably, Real Madrid could also consider a move for Salah, given the opportunity to acquire him on a free transfer.
Agent Confirms No Agreement Yet
Despite the growing speculation, Mohamed Salah’s agent, Ramy Abbas Issa, has stated that no agreement is currently in place. Speaking on social media platform X, he said: “We do not know where Mohamed will play next season. This also means that no one else knows.”
Liverpool’s Position
Liverpool and Salah are reportedly working towards an agreement that would see him leave on a free transfer, with the forward prepared to waive the final year of his contract. The Saudi Pro League is prepared to remove Salah’s wages from Liverpool’s books, though there is a ceiling on the overall deal limiting potential transfer fees.
