'Salah can be bigger than Ronaldo in Saudi'

A former Liverpool star claims Mohamed Salah will be bigger than Cristiano Ronaldo in the Saudi Pro League, urging the Reds to accept a big offer for the Egyptian.

Salah was heavily linked with a move to the Saudi Pro League before the start of the 2023/24 season, but reports claim the club would have rejected any bid as it was too late in the transfer window.

Should another offer come in for the Egyptian forward, former Reds full-back Jose Enrique feels the club should accepts and move on from their talisman.

"Mohamed Salah isn't quite the player he was three years ago. He doesn't take on defenders as much, though he's still a phenomenal goal-scoring machine, Enrique has told Grosvenor Sport

"If I were Liverpool, and the right offer came in – say, over £100 million – I'd seriously consider it. A move to Saudi Arabia could easily fetch that kind of money. I know Liverpool fans might not agree with me – they love Salah and want all their top players to stay – but sometimes, you have to know when to let go. 

"For instance, I'd renew Virgil van Dijk's contract without hesitation, but with Salah, there's the Saudi option, and he could become an even bigger star out there than Cristiano Ronaldo. Last year, there were offers from Saudi Arabia for Salah. 

"We all know that when an offer is made, personal terms have likely been agreed upon, so it's clear he's is open to the idea of moving on from Liverpool."
