‘Mohamed Salah is quitting Liverpool to join new club’ – top source
Everton’s former chief Keith Wyness has revealed he has been told Liverpool star Mohamed Salah will “finally” seal a move to the Middle East in 2025.
Speaking on the new edition of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, the 66-year-old – who served as CEO at Goodison Park between 2004 and 2009 and now runs a football consultancy advising elite clubs and their owners – claimed the Reds are “managing the media” spin on the contract situations of Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk.
All three players are out of contract at the end of the 2024-25 campaign and can negotiate pre-contract agreements from 1 January.
Salah has been in stellar form for Liverpool this term, notching 10 goals and 10 assists in 17 appearances across all competitions.
He has scored 221 goals for the club since joining in 2017, putting him fifth in the Reds’ all-time scoring charts.
The forward has been coy about his future but was the subject of intense Saudi Pro League interest last year (2023) and Middle Eastern clubs remain interested in making him a headline signing.
Salah ‘finally’ set to secure Liverpool exit, says Wyness
Wyness told Football Insider‘s Insider Track podcast: “Liverpool will be managing this.
“They’ll be having discussions with Alexander-Arnold, Van Dijk and Salah in the background.
“But I’m hearing that, finally, Salah will be off to the Middle East.
“That is what I am being told.
“Liverpool are managing the media spin. Slot will have a much stronger opinion on these matters, and his voice will be heard on these issues more and more after his good start.”
