A Saudi Arabian delegation arrived in London on Saturday, where they are making one last attempt to convince Liverpool to sell Salah this week.

The report also claims that Salah was paid £2.45 million a week to leave Anfield with additional incentives.

The ambassador roles could earn Salah an additional £18 million, with each company willing to pay him £6 million each.
The public message from Anfield and Jurgen Klopp in particular has been loud and clear that the Egyptian is not for sale and is happy at Liverpool.
A bid of around £150 million was rejected last Thursday night and his performance against Aston Villa on Sunday underlined the player’s commitment to the cause.
As Klopp underlined: “I’ve never had any doubts about his effort. He is our player and wants to play here.’
However, the Saudis continue to push the deal believing that Salah would be open to joining Al-Ittihad.
Their deadline expires on Thursday and some within the Saudi camp say they may draw a line and switch targets if there is no semblance of joy on Tuesday.
But others insist they will persevere to the end.
There was a very real prospect of Salah’s old opponent Sergio Ramos also being at Al-Ittihad, but the Spanish veteran has joined former club Sevilla.
