Al-Ittihad want to sign Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah and make him the highest played player in the Saudi Pro League.
As Spanish media Relevo revealed on Thursday the club are convinced the player wants to join but face a battle to get him out of Liverpool with just a week left of the European transfer window and two years left on his contract.
Salah would be linking up with Karim Benzema if he makes the move. And he would become a direct rival to Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr, eclipsing the world record £175m-a-season deal the Portuguese signed last year.
