The newspaper “Sport” confirmed that Mohamed Salah is one of the options circulating within Barcelona to sign him next summer, but there is one thing preventing this deal from being completed.
Salah’s contract with Liverpool expires at the end of the current season, and the “Sky” network revealed that negotiations between the Egyptian and the Reds are present, but so far without reaching an agreement.
According to “Sport”, the high salary that Salah receives and which he will insist on if he leaves Liverpool cannot be met by Barcelona.
Barcelona officials are convinced that the 32-year-old can provide an immediate addition, and the player has welcomed playing in La Liga before, but in this case he will have to reduce his salary to keep pace with the complex economic situation at Camp Nou.
The Sun newspaper recently revealed that the main point of contention between Liverpool and Salah is currently the salary, as the player is demanding a weekly salary of 350 thousand pounds, while the Reds management hopes to reduce this number to be in line with its policy for players over 30 years old.
Barcelona cannot give Salah such a salary for many reasons, and if the Egyptian king wants to reach Catalonia, he will have to make a lot of concessions in this regard, as many stars have done, most notably Robert Lewandowski.
It is worth noting that Salah has fabulous offers from the Saudi League, as it is said that the Roshn League clubs are ready to give him a salary exceeding 100 million euros annually.
