The scouting has changed so much in the last 10 - 15 years, it has become so intense that it is highly unlikely that huge talents go undetected for a longer period of time. That is why money is not fixing the problem immediately. When they have Salah, they do know what they have, it is quite simple. But when they don't have Salah anymore, they have absolutely no idea whether the next players will be as good as him or maybe better. It is a risk to sell quality because replacing it 1:1 often is a gamble.

But still I think since Salah is not that young anymore, the price that was offered was crazy. But Liverpool has plans for this season and they are ambitious, which is why I get their point of view.

I think Erik ten Hag got it wrong by not granting Rasmus Højlund a starting lineup shirt for Man Utd in their match against Arsenal on the reason that he was half-fit for the match, I believe he would have performed better than Anthony Martial who started as the main striker but didn't make any impact throughout his stay on the field, it was obvious that when Rasmus Højlund came on as a substitute he threatened Arsenal defence on few occasions, had he started that match who knows he would have scored a goal, however the little time he came on he really showed some glimpses of a good striker and I believe he would score goals for the club.

First they were offering 100 million to Salah after that 150 million and now they are offering 215 million ! It’s a very smart move from Salah and Liverpool if they accepted their offer before the end of transfers market after they denied the first offers and raised his price from Al Ittihad. I don’t think that they really care that much about performance we have seen many players with better performance than what they already brought to all Saudi professional League lately. Many better younger players with way cheaper price in market but they chose to bring names for a reason.
Liverpool can get 4 or more players with that price if they accepted this offer and Salah even that he still can offer much in his position but not for long as you said, I believe it’s wise for Liverpool to take the offer for their own good and long term benefit of the team.

Let’s just hope Rasmus Højlund’s arrival turns out well for Manchester United this season because his arrival at the club comes with lots of expectations not just from Manchester United supporters but also from rivalry club fans. Coming on against Arsenal, I know every Manchester United fan would be expecting a miraculous announcement of his presence with a goal but not even Rasmus could save the day for what was expected to be an opportunity for Rasmus to announce his presence.

Rumors will keep circulating but they're all false because we are still waiting patiently for the legitimate news to confirm the signing of the Egyptian. Saudi club keeps pressing tempting hugh proposal for the primary player they keen on signing from Liverpool this summer. Perhaps multiple offers have been turned down but that doesn't mean it's clear path for them, they're not relenting as they keep exploring more alternatives to land the player. Mohammed Salah is a crucial player for Liverpool. Jurgen Klopp made it clear that he's not leaving the club anytime soon, he's a promising player with pending key projects to be executed by the Reds.

Sergio Ramos is a free agent therefore if any club will be interested in signing him it will have to be his wages that will be the dealbreaker. Sergio Ramos has turned down deals from abroad even a possible move go Saudi Arabia thi summer and has rather accepted a move to Sevilla his boyhood club he left for two decades he is finally back as he prefers to stay closer to home.


 Manchester City supporters will be glad to hear that one of their key players have secured a 2 year extension deal that will see him continue at the club until 2026. I think Gundogan, Riyad Mahrez, Cancelo and Palmer’s exit this summer was already too much loss of talent for the club in one summer and therefore they stopped the sale of Walker as well Bernardo Silva to prevent a massive drop in the team’s performance this season.

I agree that the offer is really tempting. I think Liverpool really would like to get this much money from Salah's sale but they just can't do this now. Because they won't be able to bring anyone to replace him until January. Salah's absence would be felt a lot and they would start performing much worse while everything is going fine.

There is no need to take a risk now. Liverpool would just wait for the end of the season to think about this seriously.

If there is still an enormous offer from Saudi Arabia then there would probably be an agreement between sides. Salah would also surely get a huge contract offer.

Who wouldn't be tempted by 251 million EURO well Liverpool could get some decent players with that money, but back to Jurgen Klopp's statement that Mohamed Salah will not be leaving.

But there are rumors circulating that if it doesn't happen in the transfer window now it might happen in the winter or in the next season on the basis that Mohamed Salah has been targeted by the Saudi club, maybe Liverpool by considering his manageman.

There is nothing wrong with Al-Ittihad's offer, the average Arab club offers above the average market price.

This is definitely an unbelievable offer. Liverpool should understand that they are saying no to a huge amount of money. I don’t think this amount is going to be offered for him again in the future. Liverpool should sell Mohamed Salah. But at the same time that makes me think if they are going to face the troubles that they did after they sold Sadio Mané. And this is definitely going to be a risk. The question is, are they willing to take that risk?

If it was me, I would have definitely sold him, because as you said, he is getting old and he’s going to start having injuries very soon. It will be better for Liverpool to look for a replacement as soon as possible and approach accordingly.

Al-Ittihad wants to do this because they really want to build a team dominated by European players and maybe the Saudi league also needs more exposure so that it can continue to present matches between football stars from this season. Indeed, that is the most worrying thing because everyone or even Salah himself does not know that his prime period will end due to age or actually experiencing an injury during that time.

That could happen considering what Liverpool wants, but the problem is, do Al-Ittihad want to wait for Salah until the end of the season? I think this opportunity is very rare, especially since Liverpool's finances are not at all good. But indeed, if Liverpool want to sell Salah now, then they must be prepared for the consequences for this season's competition.

Now,  I think some of the Saudi clubs are over spending just to attract top players to their clubs, no doubts Salah ís a great player and currently in a good form but then he's not very younger and i think such figure is too much for a player in his 30's and if you're spending some top club's total transfer budget on one player then he should be able to score in every match and deliver the league trophy to them, if not it's not worth it, because that amount is enough to get about five or more  younger talented  players from South America and across Europe.
 Before the transfer windows was over for European leagues, Liverpool manager Kloop said that Salah is happy where he is and a move won't happen this summer, though the money is tempting but i believe Salah is a very important player for them this season and the won't sell him currently even for that amount,  but i think a deal might be possible next summer if they're still Interested in getting him for same offer.

It is surely unbelievable that Al Ittihad wants to pay 251 million euros for Salah. Although he is a top player, he is no longer a young player and he may already pass his golden performance. Although he still contributed well for Liverpool now, we don't know what to happen with him in the next 1-2 years. He can drop his performance because he is getting old, and it is not impossible if he begins to have injured problem.

I assume Liverpool will consider to sell Salah if Al Ittihad wants to wait until the season is over. I doubt if Liverpool wants to sell Salah in this season. He still has a big role for Liverpool, it will be difficult to get his replacement. But for selling him in the end of the season, it is very possible because Liverpool has a lot of time to look for his replacement.

Bailly is an excellent defender, and I admire his football style and defensive approach. Injury was his worst rival, and his time at Manchester United did not yield fruit for him for a long time. He is already experienced and has superior football skills than the defenders from his new team, Besiktas. I'm confident he'll dominate the defence and get more playing time than he gets at Manchester United. I hope the injury doesn't keep him from getting adequate playing time at Besiktas in the future.


When Ramos proclaiming to announce his retirement from football, I cherish his decision to play for his boycott team. Passing up a large salary offer for this team demonstrates how close and appreciable he is to them. This is what renowned players like him are expected to do. I hope that other great players like him return to their boycott teams when they are ready to retire from football. This also demonstrates that, despite his age, he is still ready to play competitive football. I wish him the best of luck in his new career.

I'm 100% sure that no one is paying for this, it's just the political paradigm and the players are under pressure to participate in all of this (although everyone has heard of those who refused to participate in these actions).
As for the players who support those movements that are banned in Saudi Arabia, but still moved there, everything is simple - it's a matter of money and they chose money. No doubt they are aware of these restrictions but they have adopted the local rules of the game.

The main problem was on FSG as the decision will depend on the FSG to determine salah's future. FSG will able to accept salah's offer consider it is biggest transfer in history. Klopp already prepared itself when salah will be leaving from the club to join in al ittihad.
Klopp's decision will meant nothing if FSG will be saying yes to sell salah for al ittihad. I hope this transfer will come true. FSG shall not miss an opportunity to get a very big amount of money from selling salah.
It will help club financially for long term. Salah can also comeback to the middle east to enjoy his life with his family.

If we speculate, Liverpool sell Salah now, of course they can't add a replacement until January. but when the time comes, they will have a large budget to recruit the players they need in the winter transfer window. however, that means that Klopp has to look for a combination of other lines of attack from the existing players, namely Nunez, Gakpo, Diaz and Jota.
related to Mo Salah, referring to the news I read as reported by The Sun claiming that Liverpool have now been offered £ 215 million, which would be the world's highest transfer fee. And if Liverpool don't accept him by the time the Saudi transfer window closes on Thursday, Al-Ittihad will be prepared to test their resolve again at the next opportunity in January.

On the other hand, referring to Romano's report, will Mo Salah remain "untouchable" for Liverpool until the end of the Saudi transfer window, Jurgen Klopp : "yes"
IMO, if what is rumored in one of the news reports like The Sun reports is true, ideally Liverpool can  release Salah in the January transfer window. in this way, they can bring in replacement successors. for now, it will be difficult for Liverpool to lose Klopp. but at the same time, if these rumors are true it is not a small value to what Al Ittihad has to offer. Let's just follow it, until the Saudi transfer window closes.

Before the game started,I knew Rashford was going to score against Arsenal because it has now seem like a record,that he is always scoring against them anytime they meet.And for Arsenal goalie,Aaron Ramsdale,Rashford has been that player that always find the back of the net anytime he is in the post.There was once in this season's transfer window when rumours came that Rashford would be sold,but I heard the rumour and didn't believe it because he is the most important prospect at Manchester United at the moment,and they can't afford to lose him for just like that. He is one player that scores important goals for them,and has shown that in so many matches.

Well that's right, if indeed the last offer from Al Ittihad is approved by Liverpool considering the amount is very fantastic then clearly M. Salah will become the most expensive player in the history of Saudi Arabia, and this amount will beat the transfer fee of Neymar who has gone there first. Yes, with this fantastic amount, only a small part of several European clubs can then reject the offer, but I think it looks like Klopp will take the same action as the previous one where he rejected the first offer from Al Ittihad.

Previously as we know M. Salah is an important player for Liverpool with various significant contributions that he has made to his squad. Yes, it is true that if Klopp accepts this offer then it makes sense they will be able to bring in two players at once to replace him, but in my opinion Klopp will not be rash in his decision in this case, previously he had also rejected the first offer from the fantastic Al Ittihad and the reason is clear that the manager is more concerned with his club than money. So for the answer to this new offer, I think it's possible that Klopp will reject it again. But let's just see later.

Rashford is a very important footballer of Manchester United. Manchester United rely on this young footballer in most of the matches. Manchester United managed only one goal against Arsenal in their last match and that one was scored by Rashford. Rashford is a very young footballer at the moment so Manchester United may not be getting the maximum performance from him at the moment but with age, there will definitely be a lot of changes in the performance of this star. Injuries are a big problem for him at the moment as the footballer has missed several training sessions due to injuries and has been irregular in the training camp. The sooner he can protect himself from injury, the brighter his career will be.

Well if Al Ittihad is successfully sign Salah, this will be the biggest transfer in football history since the current biggest transfer is Neymar where PSG sign him for 222 Million Euros from Barcelona. I think Liverpool will let Salah to join Al Ittihad if the offer is really that big because they can buy 2 star players to replace Salah's position. It just need a time to see official announcement from Fabrizio Romano.
