"Saudi Arabia says it will do whatever it can to recruit unsettled Liverpool star Mohamed Salah during the winter transfer window, a source at the kingdom's Public Investment Fund (PIF) has revealed. We follow Salah's position thoroughly and believe there can be a move either by loan or buying his contract, said the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity on Tuesday, referring to the standoff between the Egyptian and Liverpool."
"PIF holds a 75 percent share in Al-Hilal, Al-Nassr, Al-Ahli and Al-Ittihad, but the source said it was not alone in wanting the Arab world's biggest football star. There is a competition inside the Saudi league who will bring Salah, the source said, adding that a club affiliated with Saudi Arabia's state-owned oil and gas company was also interested. Aramco's Al Qadsiah has shown an interest, too."
Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) is pursuing Mohamed Salah and is open to either a loan or purchasing his contract during the January transfer window. There are no direct negotiations with Liverpool yet, but PIF expects a move at the right moment amid competition among Saudi clubs. PIF holds a 75 percent share in Al-Hilal, Al-Nassr, Al-Ahli and Al-Ittihad, while Aramco-affiliated Al Qadsiah has also shown interest. Salah said he felt 'thrown under the bus' by Liverpool, said he no longer had a relationship with manager Arne Slot, and was omitted from Liverpool's Champions League squad at Inter Milan. He played a key role in Liverpool's two Premier League titles and one Champions League triumph.
