Liverpool offered world-record bid for Salah

Liverpool were on Monday offered an aston­ishing £215million for Mo Salah.

Saudi represen­tatives from Al-Ittihad flew into London yesterday to make one final crack at landing the Kop ace before their transfer window slams shut on Thursday.

They are desperate to land the Egyptian and have followed up a whopping £170m offer with a deal that will reach £215m with add ons.

SunSport understands Salah has been offered £2.45m a week to quit Anfield with extra incen­tives.

He has been tempted with a large percentage of shirt sales, a £55,000 win bonus as well as am­bassadorial roles for at least three major Saudi companies for the duration of his contract.

That could be worth an extra £18m with each firm willing to pay him £6m each.

The Saudis are determined to get their man and have been encouraged by some members of the Kop hierarchy who are torn on whether to sell him or not.

If this bid fails, they will con­centrate on launching a fresh one when the transfer window reopens at the start of next year.

Liverpool boss, Jurgen Klopp, has continually insisted Salah is not for sale but the forward’s en­tourage are keen to listen to offers.

Salah has started all of Liver­pool’s Premier League games so far this season. —Sun
