Liverpool have rejected a lucrative offer of £ 150 million for Salah from Al Ittihad just hours before the Premier League summer transfer market officially closes (23h on September 1).

Salah is not fiercely demanding to go but is interested in a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia.
Salah himself is said to not be strongly interested in leaving, but has told friends that a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia would interest him.
Al Ittihad is said to be ready to turn Salah into the highest-paid player in the world, but Klopp hopes the Egyptian striker will stay with him at least until 2024. The German captain accepts losing the number 1 striker in next year in an “inevitable” position.
