Reports suggest that a leading Saudi Arabian club is ready to offer Mohamed Salah an astonishing €150 million per season if he chooses to leave Liverpool in the summer of 2026. Such a deal would not only break current salary records but also place Salah ahead of Lionel Messi in annual club earnings, signaling a dramatic shift in the global football landscape.
Although Salah recently signed a two-year extension with Liverpool until June 2027, the 34-year-old winger has struggled to replicate the exceptional form he displayed in previous seasons, having scored only five goals so far this term—a noticeable decline compared to Europe’s top attackers.
Speculation about a potential departure is fueled further by reports that Salah is unhappy with some of Liverpool’s high-profile new signings, including Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitiké, and Alexander Isak, whom he reportedly views as prioritizing personal ambitions over the team’s collective goals.
Insiders claim Salah feels the squad is moving away from the mentality that led to the club’s previous successes.
For Liverpool, the potential transfer carries significant consequences. While the club would gain a substantial financial windfall, losing Salah would mean parting with one of Anfield’s most iconic players. These factors are believed to be central in the club’s long-term strategic planning, especially given Salah’s age and current contract value.
If Salah accepts the Saudi offer, he would become the highest-paid footballer in club history and underscore the growing influence of Middle Eastern football markets. For Liverpool and its supporters, this could mark a period of major change and potential uncertainty
