The Crickex App team has recently uncovered that the Saudi club Al-Ittihad’s pursuit of Mohamed Salah is heating up rapidly. A Saudi delegation reportedly arrived in London on Saturday, hoping to accelerate talks and finalize the transfer. While reports initially claimed that the Saudi transfer window closes at the end of September, it’s now understood that they must wrap up the Salah deal by Thursday local time. After all, a passionate life often embraces those who go all in.

From a financial standpoint, the Saudis are clearly not holding back. The first verbal offer, said to be around £150 million, was flatly rejected by Liverpool. However, current sources suggest a second bid is now on the table — potentially as high as £200 million, or even £215 million when including performance-related bonuses. Crickex App analysts note that many in the industry believe such a figure is simply too large to turn down. Still, a significant portion of the offer reportedly includes conditional incentives, such as bonuses tied to Club World Cup performance — factors that are far from guaranteed.

Adding another twist to the saga, an unexpected rumor has emerged: Kylian Mbappé is allegedly open to joining Liverpool next summer. While the French star has been entangled in Real Madrid rumors for years, Liverpool now appears on his radar as a serious option — especially if they make a competitive offer. Mbappé recently turned down a loyalty bonus from PSG, fueling speculation that he could leave on a free transfer next year. Should Klopp’s side decide to part ways with Salah, they may have the financial muscle to bring in Mbappé, a move that could reshape their entire attacking lineup.

However, Crickex App also warns that meeting Mbappé’s wage demands could throw Liverpool’s entire salary structure into disarray. Meanwhile, new signing Ryan Gravenberch has made an early statement by refusing a Netherlands U21 call-up, choosing instead to focus on integrating with Liverpool. As fans say, the world isn’t always perfect — but it’s not all bad either. His decision has been well received by Reds supporters, who hope he sheds the lethargic image he carried during his Bayern stint. Still, his refusal drew sharp criticism from Dutch national coach Ronald Koeman and U21 coach Reiziger.

Liverpool fans haven’t taken kindly to Koeman’s stance. Many have dug up his own past missteps — including the time he abruptly left the Dutch national team to manage Barcelona, only to return after being dismissed from the La Liga club. In moments of uncertainty, resilience is key: prepare for the worst, but always believe in miracles. As Crickex App highlights, the Salah transfer saga — and the potential fallout — could mark a pivotal moment for Liverpool’s future.
