Real Madrid are the surprise contenders for disgruntled Liverpool star Mohamed Salah as the Egyptian’s future is up in the air.
According to Fichajes, Mohamed Salah has a new suitor in the form of Real Madrid, as the Spanish giants are now thinking about signing the attacker. The disgruntled Liverpool star is in the middle of a storm with the club, as his exit seems like a strong possibility in January.
Real Madrid are ready to pounce on what seems like a market opportunity, as they make their presence felt in the Mohamed Salah saga. The Egyptian could be made available following the ongoing storm between the player and Liverpool, which could see this end with the winger’s departure.
Salah’s explosive interview after the draw with Leeds United has sparked multiple possibilities about his future. He stated the club had thrown him under the bus, as well as revealing that his relationship with manager Arne Slot was broken as things stand. The message from the club has been stern enough, as they have dropped him for the trip to Inter Milan in the Champions League.
There are big signals that Liverpool might consider a sale of their superstar, as Real Madrid are the latest to think about signing him. The Spanish giants are open to the idea as they are planning on a departure in the form of Rodrygo Goes.
Liverpool are one of those interested in Rodrygo, as the report states that Real Madrid could think about offering the Brazilian for the Egyptian. Whether that is the kind of move that the disgruntled Liverpool star would seek remains to be seen, but there are hardly any players who turn down the opportunity to play at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Will Real Madrid sign Mohamed Salah?
There’s the sporting element that aligns with Florentino Perez’ thinking, as Real Madrid are always open to bringing in the best players to the Bernabeu. However, given Salah’s age and the potential asking price that Liverpool might demand, the chances are somewhat slim.
Moreover, Saudi Arabian clubs are seen as the favourites to land Salah, as Al-Hilal were the latest to enter the race for the disgruntled Liverpool star. Hence, the possibility of Salah making the switch to the Middle East seems more likely at the moment rather than Real Madrid actually making their move.
