Liverpool are also confident Salah will extend his stay at Anfield, with incoming boss Arne Slot keen for the Egyptian to remain a key part of the team.
We told you how the Reds were bracing themselves for a fresh approach from a Saudi side after rejecting an offer of more than £100million from Al Ittihad last year.
Salah remains among their big-name targets to lure to the Saudi Pro League and follow in the footsteps of Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema.
An offer – lower than the original bid – is being primed by the Saudis of around £70m plus bonuses in case Salah does become available this summer.
But it is understood that Saudi chiefs’ hopes of landing the 31-year-old in 2024 are diminishing, and there is an accceptance that Salah is likely to stay at Liverpool for another season.
Liverpool legend Graeme Souness had tipped Salah to make the move to Saudi Arabia this summer, believing he has had his ‘head turned’.
However, Salah appears to be happy to continue his seven-year love affair with the club.
That is despite his touchline row with Jurgen Klopp as he prepared to come off the bench in Saturday’s 2-2 draw with West Ham.
Salah then claimed ‘there will be fire’ should he comment on what was said between the pair at the London Stadium.
But with Klopp leaving at the end of the season, Salah will have a fresh start under Slot, the Dutchman who has agreed to replace the German in the dugout.
Salah linked up with Liverpool from Roma in 2017, where he has become one of the world’s best players.
He has scooped every major honour with the club, and has banged in 210 goals from 346 matches in all competitions.
Despite struggling for form of late, Salah has still managed to chip in with a whopping 24 goals and 13 assists from 41 games this season.
