Will Mohamed Salah settle in the Saudi League this winter?
English media reports have indicated the possibility of Egyptian international Mohamed Salah, Liverpool's star, transferring to the Saudi league during the January 2026 winter transfer window, especially given his recent decline in performance and his team's results.
Salah is considered a strategic target for the Saudi league in the coming years, as part of an effort to attract global fans, enhance the league's status among the world's top leagues, and achieve sustainable growth in all aspects.
The Saudi platform "Thamaniya" said on Sunday that the possibility of Salah joining in January is almost impossible; however, the transfer market is full of surprises, and no scenario can be completely ruled out, even if it seems unlikely.
Sources within the Saudi sports project denied any actual intention to sign Salah during the winter transfer window, considering some English reports to be inaccurate and exaggerated, but they did not rule out the possibility in the future.
Experts emphasize that any transfer of Salah in the winter requires a "miracle," but if there is a genuine desire from the player and his club, the Saudi league will not miss the opportunity to boost its star power and attract global attention.
When asked directly about potential offers from the Saudi league, Salah simply said, "I don't want to answer this question because the club will take me in a different direction," emphasizing the uncertainty of his current situation.
