Saudi Arabia will continue to invade the Premier League for superstar footballers with Liverpool's Mohamed Salah reportedly the latest target.

Egypt and Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah has emerged as the latest target from the Premier League for Saudi Arabia.

The Premier League has become the hunting group for teams from the Saudi Pro League with some top names already on their way.

Cristiano Ronaldo was the first to move to Saudi Arabia in the winter window, with N’Golo Kante and Edouard Mendy also done and dusted.

According to a report from TalkSport, Liverpool's main man Salah has been named as the next star to swap the PL for Saudi. 

This came after hints from the marketing head of the Asian Football Confederation Hafez Al-Medley. 

Kante unveiled by Al Ittihad.

As per the report, Medley wants to see Salah signed as he is popular in the Arab world and Europe. 

“We must also start working on the signing of Mohamed Salah, since he is overwhelmingly popular in the Arab world and in Europe,” Medley said. 

However, the marketing chief was quick to add that the 31-year-old may stay at Liverpool this summer as he has some records to set at Anfield. 

Uganda Cranes' striker Farouk Miya battles Egypt's Mohammed Salah in a previous World Cup qualifier.

“I think Salah still has records to break with Liverpool so I hope that if he doesn’t come now, he will in the future,” he added. 

Salah became the highest paid player in Liverpool history when he put pen to paper on a three-year deal last season.
