Mohamed Salah provided the assist for Darwin Nunez's winner on Sunday, and Jurgen Klopp has provided an update on his future at Liverpool amid reported interest from Saudi Arabian club Al-Ittihad. It was rumoured that the Saudi Pro League side had a 'concrete interest' in signing Salah this summer, as they have already signed Karim Benzema, N'Golo Kante and Liverpool's Fabinho.
When asked about Salah's future following Liverpool's win at Newcastle United, Klopp hinted that Al-Ittihad's pursuit of Salah is now over, as he replied: “For me, it has [gone away].” Earlier this week, Klopp spoke more openly on Salah's future and said: “We don’t have an offer. He’s a Liverpool player. To all the things we do he is essential, he was and will be, there is nothing there. If there was something, the answer would be no. In my life, I think about a problem when I have it. There’s nothing at the moment. When something comes up then I can think about it. If there would be something, there is a no.”
Salah is regarded as one of the best players in the world, registering 187 goals and 81 assists across 308 games for Liverpool and is under contract until 2025. With his impressive performances, it's no surprise that Liverpool are not willing to part ways with the player and Klopp's comments suggest that the team are looking to keep the Egyptian international at the club.
