Former Premier League and Egypt star Mido dropped a bombshell on the future of his compatriot Mohamed Salah.
Mohamed Salah, Liverpool's talismanic forward, is reportedly set to make a blockbuster move to the Saudi Pro League next season, according to claims by his compatriot Ahmed Hossam Hussein Abdelhamid Wasfi (Mido).
This news arrives amidst a period of uncertainty at Anfield, with Jurgen Klopp also preparing to bid farewell to the Reds at the season's end.

Mido Drops the Bombshell
Former Egypt international and Premier League veteran with stints at West Ham and Tottenham, Mido, took to social media to announce Salah's impending departure. To his 5.6 million followers on X, Mido stated, "Mohamed Salah will be in the Saudi League next season.
Contracts have been signed." This revelation has sparked a frenzy among the football community, as Salah is considered one of Liverpool's most influential players in recent history.
Salah's rumored move comes at a critical juncture for Liverpool, with the club poised to see the exit of another key figure, head coach Jurgen Klopp, at the season's conclusion.
Al-Ittifaq, a powerhouse in the Saudi Pro League, had previously expressed a strong interest in acquiring Salah last summer with a staggering £150 million offer, which was rebuffed by Liverpool at the time.
However, with the Middle Eastern clubs set to renew their pursuit of Premier League stars, including Salah, during the upcoming transfer window, it appears the Egyptian's future lies away from Anfield.
The 31-year-old's contract with Liverpool is set to run until 2025, yet the allure of a new challenge in Saudi Arabia, coupled with Klopp's departure, might be the deciding factors in Salah's decision to embark on this new journey.
