Al Ittihad’s Eye-Popping £215 Million Bid Sparks Contract Offer Revelation for Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah
In the world of football transfers, intrigue and drama are never in short supply, and the latest saga surrounding Liverpool’s talisman, Mohamed Salah, is no exception. Reports have been swirling recently that Al Ittihad, a Saudi Professional League side, is preparing a jaw-dropping £215 million offer for the Egyptian superstar. This comes hot on the heels of Liverpool’s rejection of a substantial £150 million bid, even after Jurgen Klopp publicly declared that Salah was not available for transfer.
According to sources, the impending bid from Al Ittihad would consist of an impressive £170 million upfront, with additional add-ons to sweeten the deal. However, what has truly caught the attention of football enthusiasts worldwide is the staggering personal package being dangled in front of Salah to lure him away from Anfield.
Reports indicate that Salah is being enticed with an eye-popping weekly wage of £2.45 million, making him one of the highest-paid footballers on the planet. But that’s not all; the deal also includes a substantial percentage of shirt sales, a win bonus amounting to £55,000 per match, and the opportunity to assume ambassadorial roles for three prominent Saudi companies.
Each of these companies is reportedly willing to shell out a staggering £6 million, effectively ensuring that Salah’s off-field earnings would swell by an additional £18 million, all on top of his astronomical contract.
Despite the whirlwind of speculation surrounding his future, Mohamed Salah continues to deliver on the pitch. He showcased his brilliance yet again with a goal in Liverpool’s comfortable 3-0 victory over Aston Villa last Sunday.
In the wake of the match, Reds’ full-back, Andy Robertson, was questioned about the uncertainty surrounding Salah’s tenure at the club. In response, Robertson stated, “For us, we block that out, Mo blocks it out. We let other people talk about that. For us, Mohamed Salah is a Liverpool player, and we believe that is what is going to be the case for the foreseeable future.”
Robertson went on to commend Salah’s unwavering professionalism, emphasizing that the Egyptian forward remains focused on his duties at Liverpool. “He’s the ultimate professional. He does what he does, he is one of the best players in the world, and he is professional,” Robertson asserted. “He lets other people do the talking, lets other people say what they have to say, but he’s always been committed to Liverpool.”
The footballing world now eagerly awaits the outcome of this unprecedented transfer saga, as Salah’s future hangs in the balance amid Al Ittihad’s relentless pursuit.
