The former director of the Premier League, Slaven Bilic, said that Mo Salah was about to leave Liverpool last summer before having a last -minute heart change.
Salah has experienced a better career campaign in Anfield this season, recording 25 goals and 17 Premier League assists to carry out the Liverpool title under the Arne machine.
However, Bilic revealed how things could have been very different when Salah almost turned his back to Liverpool last year.
The former boss of West ham explained how Salah had accepted a lucrative decision in Saudi Arabia after having become unhappy during the last months of Jurgen Klopp on the Merseyside, but chose to stay when the German resigned at the end of last season.
Speaking on programming, via Betmgm and Talksport, Bilic said: “ There was certainly a change this season under the Arne slit as, after being in Saudi Arabia last year, I know that he was not satisfied with Jurgen Klopp and we expected him to move.
“The whole of Arabia was ready for him and he would have been the star of the League.

“As far as we were concerned, it was done and Mo Salah was going to join Al-Ittihad.
Bilic was in charge of Al-Fateh last summer, but left the Saudi club in August.
Salah has continued to be linked to a move in the Middle East in recent months, with his Liverpool contract which is expected to expire this summer.
He said in January that this should be his “last year” in Liverpool, and the 32 -year -old man spoke several times about his frustration not to accept a new agreement with the club.
Bilic thinks that Salah is likely to move to Saudi eventually and expect the Egyptian winger to receive another attractive offer in the near future.
“He knows that this decision is there for him when he wants to leave Liverpool,” added Bilic.
“It is not a one -year project” to take or leave “in Saudi.
