The Minister of Sports of Saudi Arabia suggested that Mohamed Salah remains a future target for the League despite his recent renewal in Liverpool.
Salah, 32, is one of the greatest players of all Liverpool times, the Egyptian having scored 243 remarkable goals in 396 games for the club since he joined Roma in 2017 for a first prize of 36.5 million pounds sterling.
The striker won eight trophies in Anfield and remains full of Arne Slot’s team while they are getting closer to the title of Premier League.
Salah’s previous contract was to expire in summer and speculations on his future were a major discussion subject throughout the campaign, the attacker regularly providing cryptic responses when he was questioned about his future.
However, earlier this month, the club confirmed that it had put the pen on paper on a new agreement until 2027 worth £ 380,000 per week, ending the dramatic saga.
The Saudi Pro League has long presented the attacker’s next move after having been the subject of a failed offer of 150 million pounds from al-Ittihad in 2023.

And while the League focuses on young players, the Minister of the Sports Prince Abdulaziz Bin Turki al-Faisal suggested that they could still move for Salah in the future.
Speaking on the Saudi Grand Prix on Sunday, Al-Faisal told journalists: “I mean, she is a superstar.
“He is an emblematic Arab Muslim. It corresponds to the identity of playing in the Saudi league. It was his decision to renew with it, but binding Saudi to him and everything … Think from the first day, they connect Saudi Arabia. There was no discussion. But it’s good to have that.
“Now you can see that any player wants to renew their contract or sign their, they (the media) say that they arrive in Saudi and that most at 90% are not true.
“But I think we have a strategy we are working on and everyone says we just sign all the players.”
It was a superb season for Salah, which contributed to 27 goals and 18 passes in the Premier League so far this season, with Liverpool now a victory to seal the title of the Premier League after their 1-0 victory in Leicester on Sunday.
Salah expressed his joy at staying in Liverpool after renewing his contract
“Of course, I am very excited. We have a large team now. Before, we had an excellent team. But I signed because I think we have a chance to win other trophies and enjoy my football, “he told the club website.
“It’s great, I spent my best years here. I played eight years, I hope it is going to be 10 years old. Bating my life here, enjoying my football. I spent the best years of my career.
“I would like to say to (fans), I am very, very happy to be here. I have signed here because I think we can win a lot of great trophies together. Continue to support us and we will give our best, and I hope that in the future, we will win more trophies.
