Transfer rumors, news: Clubs circling Salah as January looms
Clubs in Europe and Saudi Arabia are watching closely as Mohamed Salah's contract talks with Liverpool continue. Transfer Talk has the latest news, gossip and rumors.
www.espn.comHere’s the latest on Mohamed Salah transfer news as of now.
Core update
- Mohamed Salah has been the subject of ongoing transfer rumors, with reports in early 2025 suggesting interest from Barcelona and Saudi clubs, though no official offers or confirmed moves have materialized. Barcelona were discussed as a potential destination given his contract situation at Liverpool, but financial constraints and Barca’s La Liga rules were highlighted as obstacles. Also, Saudi clubs reportedly remained interested, with Salah reportedly receiving approaches in some reports, but no finalized agreement reported at that time.[1][2][3]
Recent patterns to watch
- Saudi Pro League interest has persisted for Salah, with clubs like Al Hilal previously linked in transfer chatter, though actual deals have not been completed in the sources available to me.[3]
- European clubs have continued to monitor Salah as a high-profile out-of-contract or nearing-contract-player, but concrete public moves have not been confirmed in the latest widely reported updates.[1][3]
Context and caveats
- Transfer reporting on Salah has fluctuated over time, with outlets often cycling through rumors and speculative links, and definitive, publicly announced transfers remaining absent in the most recent cycles I can access.[3][1]
