Mo Salah's future at Liverpool remains uncertain as his contract is set to expire next June, which would allow him to engage in discussions with other clubs starting in January. The Saudi Pro League, with Michael Emenalo at the helm, who reportedly maintains a good relationship with Salah, is making a concerted effort to secure his transfer. Initially, Al Ittihad was interested, but Al Hilal has now emerged as the most likely destination. It is believed that the transfer is also part of a strategic plan to secure lucrative TV rights deals in Egypt, Salah's home country. Liverpool is keen for him to renew his contract, but it is anticipated that if he becomes a free agent, he would command a larger sign-on fee.

Mohamed Salah is anticipated to transfer to Saudi Arabia once his contract with FC Liverpool expires in the summer. He will be able to negotiate with a new club starting in January without needing Liverpool's consent. Al Hilal plans to take advantage of a special transfer window from June 1 to June 10, which was introduced specifically for the FIFA Club World Cup, to secure Salah's signature before the tournament in the USA. According to 'Talksport', the transfer might still result in a fee for Liverpool. In the event that Liverpool and Al Hilal do not reach an agreement, Al Hilal might have to commence the initial phase of the tournament without Salah.
