Most recent rumours and rumours about Mohamed Salah and Barcelona’s transfer to Liverpool
Before weighing other options, Barcelona apparently identified Mohamed Salah, a standout player for Liverpool, as a possible transfer target.
Salah’s departure from Anfield has been rumoured to be imminent ever since his breakout season with the Reds in 2017–18. The Egyptian has since continued to be an important part of Jurgen Klopp’s team and has moved up to sixth place on the club’s all-time leading scorers list with 204 goals in 332 appearances.
Barcelona is preparing to recruit a new wide forward when the transfer window reopens in the summer, according to Mundo Deportivo. It has been reported that the La Liga powerhouses have given Salah some thought.
However, the source claims that Barcelona believes it would be “impossible” to attempt to get Salah from Liverpool. This is due to the cost involved in persuading the Reds to allow their star forward to depart the team, despite the fact that Barca views Salah as the “best option” for what they want.
As a result, Barcelona has three transfer candidates on its shortlist in place of Salah. They include Brighton winger Kaoru Mitoma, Napoli attacker Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, and Arsenal star Gabriel Martinelli.
Salah signed new terms prior to the start of the last campaign, thus his current Liverpool contract is set to expire in 2025. Now that the 31-year-old is in the last 18 months of his contract, there will probably be more rumours about his future.
Salah was rumoured to be considering a move to Saudi Arabia and leaving Anfield during the summer. Salah, on the other hand, stayed on Merseyside and has had another fantastic season leading the Reds in goals.
Salah has not played for Liverpool since New Year’s Day, yet he has still managed to score eighteen goals this season in all competitions. After missing almost seven weeks of action owing to injury and international duties, Salah is hoping to play in the Premier League this Saturday against Brentford.

Unveiled: New Premier League regulations will give Liverpool an incredible £415 million transfer boost.
If new financial rules are put in place, Liverpool would have no restrictions on how much money they might spend in 2024–2025 (Football Insider can reveal).
On Thursday night, all 20 Premier League clubs convened to deliberate over the replacement of the existing Profit and Sustainability regulations.
The new rules that have been proposed would be in line with the philosophy of Uefa, which limits expenditure to a portion of the club’s total revenue.
The cap, which will apply to wages, agent fees, and transfer fees, is anticipated to be regulated at 85 percent of income for teams competing outside of Europe and 70 percent for clubs playing in Europe.
According to the 2024 Deloitte Football Money League, Liverpool’s income for the previous year was £593 million, placing them eighth globally in terms of financial performance.
Based on their present revenue levels, Liverpool would have an incredible £415 million to spend if the Premier League votes to implement new laws.
Their £261 million pay cost would eat up most of that money, but the Merseyside club would still have a sizeable transfer budget left over for new players.
Following Jurgen Klopp’s statement that he will be leaving Anfield at the end of the 2023–24 season, the Reds are actively searching for a new manager.
Therefore, if new Premier League rules are implemented, the manager selected to succeed Klopp may receive a sizable transfer budget for the 2024–2025 campaign
