Henderson was the subject of a lot of controversy when he left liverpool for saudi al ettifaq last summer, and now has a chance to shine a light on the world by extending his contract with ajax for just six months. Liverpool, which sold fabinho to al ittihad last summer, is expected to receive more business from saudi arabia this year. Al ettifaq has identified joel matip and thiago alcantara as targets for the forthcoming season, while salah is one of the main targets for the saudi pro league. Salah is expected to be targeted by al hilal at the end of the current season, when he enters the final 12 months of his own contract, and henderson refused to warn his former teammate against a move to the middle east after being chased by al ittihad last summer. When henderson was asked if he would discourage salah from making the switch, henderson said, “no, certainly not.” “everyone is different. almost everyone is different.” Big players are now enjoying every second of it. You may encounter others who don’t settle or have a problem in their private life. Things change quickly. “i wouldn’t say anything negative about the league, the clubs, or anything else.” I have utter respect for the opportunity i was given to travel there. “90min understands salah is content with his life at liverpool, who are back in the premier league title race this season, but saudi officials are keen to show their support for the egypt international once more as they try to find their top priority.
Salah isn’t expected to make a decision on his future in the coming weeks and will do so later this year. Given the status of his contract, the 31-year-old is in complete control of his own destiny, though liverpool could refuse to do business despite salah’s feelings and run the risk of allowing him to leave for free in 2025. Salah has been one of the top players in the premier league this season. Liverpool has climbed to the top of the standings after a string of goals and eight assists in just 20 appearances.
