Mohamed Salah will set sail for a new challenge in the summer after the announcement of his imminent Liverpool exit.
An agreement has been reached with the Reds to let the 33-year-old leave on a free transfer after nine prolific seasons in the Premier League.
His agent, Ramy Abbas, has said no plans have been made: “We do not know where Mohamed will play next season. This also means that no one else knows,” he confirmed this week.
We’ve looked at the current favourites to sign the Egyptian.
Mohamed Salah’s next club odds after Liverpool star confirms summer exit
Paris Saint-Germain – 8/1
There’s no certainty that Salah will view his Liverpool exit as a step down, with the relentless mindset that took him to the top very much prominent. Could PSG offer Salah a chance to remain at the top level?
The French champions are hardly short of top-tier attacking talent, but there are question marks over Bradley Barcola’s future. A move to Ligue 1, where the competition is significantly weaker than in England, could allow an ageing Salah an adequate schedule to remain fresh for European competition.
Al-Hilal – 3/1
The Saudi Pro League has made no secret of its desire to lure Salah to the Middle East, as arguably the most high-profile Arab footballer in the world.
Al-Hilal are locked in a tense title race right now and could see Salah as the perfect addition to strengthen ahead of next season. A front pair of Salah and Karim Benzema would be some sight.
Al-Nassr – 2/1
How about a Salah x Cristiano Ronaldo combination with Sadio Mane thrown in for good measure?
Mane and Salah tore teams apart during their peak seasons at Liverpool with a friendly rivalry that occasionally threatened to boil over. Mane has insisted there are no issues, however, calling Salah a ‘very nice guy’ in an interview last year.
Al-Ittihad – 2/1
Al-Ittihad are long-term admirers of Salah and saw a £150m bid for the Egyptian turned in September 2023. Salah is now available as a free agent and is sure to attract renewed interest.
Al-Ittihad are sixth in the Saudi Pro League and in need of the lift that Salah would provide. Former Liverpool teammate Fabinho is part of the Saudi side’s current squad.
Any MLS team – 6/4
A move to MLS is the current likeliest destination for Salah, according to the bookmakers. Antoine Griezmann’s recent transfer to Orlando City has added another headline name to the MLS roster, and Salah is sure to be on the agenda for American sides. Several sides have open Designated Player spaces, including Los Angeles FC and New York Red Bulls. Toronto FC, in the midst of an overhaul, has all three vacant.
