As the 2024-25 season comes to an end, clubs in Europe are starting to plan their transfers, and Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah is a hot topic. The Egyptian star’s contract expires at the end of the current season, and reports suggest that clubs from the Saudi Pro League are interested in signing him.
According to The Telegraph, Saudi Arabian team Al-Hilal are optimistic about securing Salah’s services for the next campaign. However, any potential move before the FIFA Club World Cup appears unlikely with Salah focused on finishing the season with Liverpool. The Club World Cup is scheduled to take place in June.

Salah’s Liverpool future in limbo
Salah’s future at Anfield remains uncertain as Liverpool are reportedly preparing a contract offer to retain their talisman. He’s willing to hear them out, but the big-money offer from the Saudi Pro League is still an option. If he decides not to renew his contract, he could leave for free at the end of the season, which would be a huge win for Al-Hilal.
Back in 2023, Al-Ittihad made a massive £150 million bid for Salah, but Liverpool turned it down because they saw him as a key player for the team. Now, with his contract running out, the club might have to make a tough call on whether to let him go or try to keep him.

Saudi Pro League’s growing influence
The Saudi Pro League has been expanding its profile, securing marquee signings such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, and Neymar in recent seasons. Lionel Messi was also in talks of joining the league but he chose Major League Soccer in the USA instead. The prospect of adding Salah would be a significant move for Al-Hilal and Saudi football as a whole.
Meanwhile, Salah is close to making history as he is just one goal away from passing Sergio Aguero as the top-scoring non-English player in Premier League history. Right now, both have 184 goals, but Salah could break the record as soon as Wednesday in the Merseyside derby against Everton.
Salah also has a shot at beating Erling Haaland’s record of 36 goals in a single Premier League season, set in 2022-23.
