Liverpool will have to turn down the second-highest-ever fee paid to a British team if they want to keep Mohamed Salah from joining Saudi Arabia's Al Ittihad
Saudi Arabian side Al-Ittihad will test how desperate Liverpool are to keep Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah by making a bid of up to £120 million for the forward on the final day of the European transfer window.
Al-Ittihad keen on Salah transfer

Salah to become highest-paid in the world with Al Ittihad
Nevertheless, Al-Ittihad continue in their efforts to sign Salah, believing that they can reach a deal with Liverpool even if they have to offer the second-highest transfer fee paid to a British club for a player to seal a move for the Egyptian.
