Liverpool hero Mohamed Salah is at the centre of transfer speculation, with Al-Hilal emerging as a strong contender to sign the Egyptian winger at the end of the season. Although Al-Ittihad had tabled a significant £150m bid last summer, Liverpool rejected the proposal and talks over a second offer failed to come to fruition.

Salah, who has shone again for Liverpool, registering 18 goals and nine assists in 27 appearances in all competitions, could be considering a move at the end of the season. Manager Jurgen Klopp's decision to leave Liverpool at the end of the campaign could influence Salah's choice to seek new horizons.
While Al-Ittihad maintain their interest in Salah, Al-Hilal have emerged as a surprise contender. The Saudi club, who are performing strongly in the Saudi top flight, are looking to form a dream attack by signing Salah, linking him with Brazilian icon Neymar and former Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic.

Klopp's departure could change the landscape of negotiations, with Al-Hilal, capitalising on their good form in the local competition, looking to get ahead in the race for Salah's signature. Should the Egyptian star opt to join Al-Hilal instead of Al-Ittihad, it would open the door to the formation of a formidable attacking trio, promising exciting prospects for the Saudi club next season.
