Liverpool: Mohamed Salah transfer latest as Al Hilal manager breaks silence over January deal | OneFootball

The 32-year-old’s future at Liverpool is up in the air as no agreement over a new contract has been reached yet

Al Hilal manager Jorge Jesus has ruled out a January transfer for Liverpool star Mohamed Salah, but has suggested there could be movement at the end of the season.

In fact, just last month after scoring once and assisting a further two in a 5-0 thrashing of West Ham, he told Sky Sports that he was "far away" from agreeing on fresh terms at Anfield.

However, Al Hilal's manager Jesus has ruled out the possibility of a move this month.

“Mo Salah or other big players will not come this winter… but maybe next season," Jesus told reporters when asked about his side's January transfer plans.

According to reports, Al Hilal have identified Salah as a replacement for Neymar who is out of contract at the end of the season.

Due to his contract situation, the Egypt international would not cost Al Hilal a single penny if he was to move in the summer which is a stark contrast considering Liverpool rejected a bid of £150m from Al-Ittihad 16 months ago.

Though with 21 goals and 17 assists across all competitions to his name so far this campaign, Salah, despite turning 33 this June, has proven he can still operate at the highest level in Europe.

That may prove to be the deciding factor with regards to his next step, if he is to leave Liverpool and seek a new challenge.
