Mohamed Salah's imminent exit from Liverpool has set the transfer rumour mill spinning, with one report suggesting the Egypt international is determined to remain in European football rather than take the well-trodden path to Saudi Arabia.

Salah will leave Anfield when his contract expires this summer, bringing a nine-year stay at the club to a close. His final season under manager Arne Slot was marked by friction, with Salah publicly voicing his discontent over being dropped and questioning the team's style of play.
